"Ultima Thule is the story of a heartbreaking revenge in Scandinavia." "A novel without heroes or villains, featuring human beings struggling for survival in the clash between two antagonistic civilizations." "Romans and Norsemen: a journey with two perspectives that transformed history for centuries." In the year 117 A.D., the Roman Empire dominates the known world.

When the young Marco Annio is torn between his love for an unattainable woman and his obedience to his family, Scandinavian Norns will alter his destiny, dragging him into a fratricidal struggle in the North Sea between Harald and Ladgerda, two stepbrothers who have succumbed to revenge as the sole reason for their existence.
