The Berserker

By Charles V De Vet and Ed Emshwiller

A hook: A sharpened blade, a fate threaded through storm and saga. A call to readers who hear the old sagas echo in the present, and who seek a mythic sense of honour in every page. The Berserker returns to the shelf in a stunning Alpha Editions edition that speaks to lovers of historical adventure fiction and mythology inspired fiction alike. Set in a medieval nordic world, the story travels through a harsh, sea-worn landscape where the honour of a Norse warrior is tested by peril, vengeance, and the inexorable pull of fate. With a atmosphere reminiscent of the Norse sagas, it blends raw action with rites and lore, offering vikings inspired fantasy that resonates with fans of Norse myth retellings and classic literary craftsmanship. This is more than a tale; it is a tapestry of power, loyalty, and the uneasy cost of revenge, crafted for both casual readers and serious collectors of classic literature. Note on literary and historical significance: the book sits at the crossroads of age-old myth and enduring narrative craft, a touchstone for those who relish the texture of early medieval storytelling and the timeless allure of berserk myth and lore. Selling points: Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A gift for historical readers seeking a complete classic collection, and a doorway into the enduring world of Norse myth and heroism.
