Sword Daughter Volume 3: Elsbeth of the Island

by Brian Wood, Mack Chater (Illustrator), Lauren Affe (Illustrator)

Overview

A father and daughter carve their way across Europe to complete their revenge against the dwindling clan of Vikings that destroyed their lives so many years ago.

Elsbeth Dagsdottir has not forgotten the oath her father made to her on that remote Icelandic beach: to deliver revenge upon the Forty Swords clan that burned their village and murdered her mother. It might take them a lifetime of struggle and suffering and loss, but a promise is a promise.

Created by Brian Wood (Northlanders, The Massive, DMZ) and Mack Chater (Briggs Land, Lazarus), Sword Daughter is a visually stunning, emotionally poignant story of parental guilt and acceptance of loss.

Collects Sword Daughter issues #7-#9.
