“An exciting and stylishly illustrated tale about making peace with the past and looking forward to new horizons. Sons of Ashgard feels like the beginning of something epic. Do not squirrel this nut away until winter.”
Full of action, adventure and some comedy and heart, the Sons of Ashgard saga follows a group of adventurous squirrels across a Norse-flavored landscape, finding commonality in a bond birthed through mutual struggle and discovery. Each story is standalone but also able to tie into a larger narrative woven between tales.

"A beautifully drawn anthropomorphic Viking adventure, epic in scale and full of heart... This book feels like a classic in the making."
“An exciting and well-drawn epic, like Braveheart married Usagi Yojimbo but with squirrels. I didn’t know I needed that in my life until now.”
“As a busy comics professional, I spend far too little time reading comics vs making them. Sitting down with Sons of Ashgard was a welcomed venture back into the pleasure of admiring and reading comics. Looking forward to more.”

Oakgard is the second kingdom of the Ashnir. Being so close to Ashgard also has lent it some status over the generations as a place of greater significance than the other Ashnirin kingdoms. It is also seen as a place of stability following some troubling times of past scuffles for rule between the sons of Thorinson in the middle portion of its history.

This is the sixth and youngest kingdom of the Ashnir. It is was founded by Heimdin Othinson, who took a Tamirin wife. He also had the potential of having the largest kingdom but took to securing what he had in increments--his descendants doing the same—due to concerns of threats arising in the wilderness and them being the farthest afield for any other kingdoms to come promptly to their aid.
