520    After seven years of exile, battle-hardened Hallstein 
       Thordsson returns home to Iceland, only to find that old 
       wounds haven't healed. His stepmother Solveig and his half
       -brother Ottar are besieged by wood thieves, directed by 
       her unwelcome suitor, Einar. The Exile's presence disrupts
       the delicate balance and threatens to tip all of Iceland 
       into violence. 
520    A remarkable decades-spanning epic, Erik Kriek's The Exile
       is equal parts action "Western" and family drama, with a 
       surprising story of violence and consequences at its core.
       Told in a naturalistic modern style but with tremendous 
       fidelity to the historical period in which it is set, The 
       Exile depicts the Viking age in all of its conflict, 
       turmoil, and social structure, with every detail depicted 
       vividly on the page. Hailing from the Netherlands, Kriek 
       is an internationally-decorated illustrator known for his 
       work on In the Pines (2015) and Gutsman. Lushly told with 
       gorgeous traditionally-drawn brush work, and a limited 
       palette illustration style reminiscent of the great three-
       color illustrators of the 1940s and 50s, Kriek's art is 
       alternately breezy and gritty, but always stunning, 
       whether he's depicting a full-blown Viking battle or a 
       wearying sea voyage.
