Yngvar Hakonsson and his loyal companion Alasdair are slave-soldiers in the Byzantine army. Though granted freedom for their heroism, they must continue to serve. Alongside soldiers of the Empire, they defend the walls of Pozzallo against the Arab Emirate. The Arabs have wearied of Byzantine interference. Their armies push east, besieging forts and driving the Byzantines to the sea. Yngvar and his fellow soldiers know that death must come soon.

Yet he has not forgotten his oath of revenge on Prince Kalim and those who killed his crew and companions. Neither has he forsaken the promise of riches the gods have dangled before him.

One morning, from the walls of Pozzallo a square sail is spotted on the ocean horizon. Arab ships are in pursuit. There can be no doubt, the ship is Yngvar's. As his ship and its pursuers draw closer, he sees his Wolves on the deck.

A long-awaited reunion is near but first the Arabs must be driven off. Join Yngvar and his Wolves as they reunite to fulfill their dreams of bloody vengeance.
