What is The Viking saga of Harri Bristlebeard about?

Harri Bristlebeard is a brave but rather bumbling Viking chief whose village has fallen on hard times. Long ago, a magical raven banner was stolen by a dragon, and Harri must recover it to restore his people’s luck. With help from his daughter Hilda, the loyal wolf Fenrir and a growing crowd of lively companions, he faces trolls, sea serpents, wolves and dragons. Young readers can follow the comic-strip adventure, solve riddles and search each busy picture for hidden objects.
