Sons of Ashgard: Ill Met in Elmgard

<b><i>With bloody hands and sorrowful heart</i><br><i>I set my sails and soon depart.</i><br><i>For a brighter day my soul does long.</i><br><i>A place to hope where I can belong.</i></b><br><br>Erick Redfur seeks a new life. Exiled from his homeland he craves a fresh start, but has yet to find it. Hopeful of a better fate in Elmgard he soon finds himself embroiled in a series of troubling events that quickly escalate into a near kingdom-wide war. <br><br>Yet even as he attempts a remedy through fast thinking and the aid of some new companions, he risks jeopardizing his chance for a more peaceful future. But in so doing he’ll find his redemption along with new hope for the days ahead.<br><br>Full of action, adventure and some comedy and heart, the <i>Sons of Ashgard </i>saga follows a group of adventurous squirrels across a Norse-flavored landscape finding commonality in a bond birthed through mutual struggle and discovery. Each story is stand-alone but also able to tie into a larger narrative woven between tales.<br><br><br>“As a busy comics professional, I spend far too little time reading comics vs making them. Sitting down with <i>Sons of Ashgard</i> was a welcomed venture back into the pleasure of admiring and reading comics. Looking forward to more.” —Doug Mahnke (<i>Swamp Thing: Green Hell</i>)<br><br>“A beautifully drawn anthropomorphic Viking adventure, epic in scale and full of heart... This book feels like a classic in the making.”—Max Dunbar (<i>Dungeons & Dragons, Batman Beyond: Neo Year</i>)<br><br>“An exciting and well-drawn epic, like <i>Braveheart</i> married<i> Usagi Yojimbo</i> but with squirrels. I didn’t know I needed that in my life until now.”—Ethan Nicole (<i>Axe Cop, Brave Ollie Possum, </i>and <i>Bears Want To Kill You</i>)<br><br>“An exciting and stylishly illustrated tale about making peace with the past and looking forward to new horizons. <i>Sons of Ashgard</i> feels like the beginning of something epic. Do not squirrel this nut away until winter.”—Patrick Gleason (<i>Amazing Spider-Man, Superman: Rebirth, Robin: Son of Batman</i>)
