Nothing scheduled
Is it for me?
This one works for adults who want Viking war without clean heroes and villains and can stomach graphic gore. Watching is mostly about the push and pull between the boy and the band's leader, with the fights as the backdrop. In one early scene, Thorfinn stows away on a ship of the village's young men, who struggle with the sea.
Before you start
Season one is battlefield-heavy and fast; season two changes setting and slows way down with far less fighting, so give it time.
