100 RAZONES POR LAS QUE NO TE MIERDAS A KING VIKING: UNA GUÍA COMPLETA, PERO TONTA, PARA NAVEGAR POR LOS CLICHÉS VIKINGOS EN EL MUNDO MODERNO

¿Estás listo para embarcarte en un divertido viaje a través de la historia con una taza de hidromiel en una mano y una prueba de la realidad en la otra? "100 razones por las que no eres un maldito vikingo" no es sólo un libro; Es un estridente viaje al pasado combinado con una mirada ingeniosa a la manía vikinga actual.

Sumérgete en esta exploración irreverente de la tradición nórdica y descubre:

  • Por qué los cascos con cuernos son una prohibición histórica. (Spoiler: ¡los vikingos no los usaban!)
  • Cómo evitar ser un estereotipo vikingo en las ferias del Renacimiento y más allá.
  • Lecciones modernas de la sabiduría antigua, porque ¿a quién no le vendría bien un poco de coraje vikingo en su vida?

Este no es un libro de historia promedio. Es una aventura desgarradora que rompe estereotipos y que te enseñará más sobre lo que significa ser un vikingo que cualquier programa de televisión o meme.

Perfecto para:

  • Aficionados a la historia que buscan reírse.
  • Entusiastas de la cultura pop a quienes les encanta una visión ingeniosa de las tendencias.
  • Cualquiera que busque un regalo único que combine humor, historia y corazón.

Características especiales:

  • Ilustraciones únicas dibujadas a mano dan vida a la hilaridad de Peter Oakmund Madsen y Mat Bone.
  • Contenido único para los amantes de la historia y el humor.
  • ¡Un elegante formato A6 perfecto para leer mientras viaja o exhibir en su mesa de café/el libro de tocador perfecto!

¡Consigue tu copia hoy y únete a las filas de los ilustrados y divertidos! Porque seamos realistas, lo más cerca que estamos la mayoría de nosotros de ser vikingos es elegir el filtro "Nordic Noir" en Instagram.

¡Agréguelo al carrito ahora y zarpe en busca de risas, aprendizaje y una mirada liberadora a la cultura vikinga!

About the author

Isar Oakmund

Isar Oakmund is a Danish tattooist based in Whitley Bay, England, who has spent years specialising in Nordic and historical art. Every design in his books starts as a sketch in his own hand, and every rune, motif and symbol is researched before it is drawn, so what you get is grounded in real Norse and Viking Age history.

About Northern Black

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this book about?

A light-hearted, pocket-sized blend of humour and history, created to gently (or not so gently) remind modern readers that the Viking Age is long gone, while clearing up some of the myths surrounding "modern Vikings."

What's inside the book?

Fun facts, quick lessons, and play-along questions, all aimed at entertaining while busting common Viking myths.

Is this a serious history book?

It's history with a sense of humour. It's packed with real facts and insight, but written to entertain as much as to educate.

Do I need any prior knowledge of Norse history to enjoy this?

No, it's accessible to complete beginners, while still offering plenty for readers who already know their sagas from their stereotypes.

Who is this book for?

Anyone with an interest in Norse history and culture, especially fans of myth-busting humour, or anyone who knows someone who takes their "Viking" persona a little too seriously.

Is this a good gift?

Yes, it works well as a stocking filler, party piece, or gift for friends and family with a genuine (or ironic) interest in Norse history.

How does this differ from Northern Black's other books, like the Viking Art series?

The Viking Art series is a visual reference for Norse art and design. This book is a short, humour-led read focused on myths and misconceptions about Vikings, rather than artwork or design reference.
