WITHIN THE KING'S GRASP As Canute plots to become ruler of the entire Danish world Thorfinn's
only ambition is to see a harvest profitable enough to buy his own life back. But the fates of
prince and slave will come together once again as Canute plans to seize Ketil Farm from its
kindhearted master. What sinister tricks does the have up his sleeve and could they dash
Thorfinn's hopes for freedom? Meanwhile Einar's infatuation with Arnheid takes an unexpected
turn when her former husband - an escaped slave - barges onto the farm insisting she run away
with him… A fascinating violent and moving story [that's] firmly among other timeless
classics… Seriously I don't know how many different ways I can say this manga is worth
reading. -Kotaku
