Plots(1)
Ragnar and Lagertha's fleets depart Kattegat once more for Wessex but this time they bring settlers. King Ecbert hosts the Vikings and proposes a deal. Despite the misgivings of some of the other leaders, Ragnar leads his forces into battle once more, but this time as allies of Wessex. (History Channel)
Reviews (2)
An initial dusting off of the main characters, more local languages, Porunn's divine haircut and a solid final battle that offers nothing groundbreaking. The third season could have had a sharper start, but we’ll see what happens next.
()
The start of the third season didn't really grab me. I wasn’t bored, but it felt like the creators were just recycling old plots to make it seem like something was happening. Things picked up at King Ecbert’s court, and I was looking forward to the campaign in Mercia, but that didn’t last long. You don’t need to be a military strategist to realize that splitting an army into two parts that can't support each other is a recipe for disaster. And I can’t help it, but the armor really bothers me.
