This is the kind of Viking series I would follow. A more realistic pace, individuals rather than Hollywood faces and, above all, the matriarch that narrate the back story of an innocent boy who turns into a vengeful leader.

The human story could very well be told in our time. The different ways to survive, war or peace, and especially mothers struggle to save their children from violence and death.

With a decent budget this production can be a one of a kind Viking series with more focus on the humans, very much like ourselves, in the Viking Age, rather than a lot of quick, rough battles.

And: made in Sweden, at the same scenic location as the historic Viking villages!
