Exiled and left for dead at fifteen after the catastrophic Battle of Stiklestad, Prince Harald Sigurdsson's life of privilege is shattered. Fueled by a burning ambition, he forges a new path across the known world, becoming a legendary commander in the elite Varangian Guard of the Byzantine Empire. He amasses a vast fortune and a fearsome reputation as the "Bulgar-Burner," a man who has learned the brutal art of power in the world's most dangerous city. But the lure of his lost kingdom calls to him, and he returns to the north a harder, more ruthless man, ready to claim his birthright with the same cold iron he used to conquer for an emperor.

Now, in the fateful year of 1066, the English throne is vacant, and Harald sees his final, ultimate prize. Forging an alliance with a bitter English exile, he gathers the largest Viking invasion fleet in a generation to make his last great gamble. But as he stands on the cusp of creating a great northern empire, he is unaware that his own hubris has set the stage for a single, bloody battle at a place called Stamford Bridge—a battle that will not only decide his fate, but will mark the violent, dramatic, and legendary end of the Viking Age.
