On the frozen shores of Sweden, a freak lightning storm reveals the skeleton of a giant man, his bony fist gripped tight to the shaft of an ancient iron hammer. It’s not every day that the remains of a Norse god and his war hammer appear on a beach, and the occult detective called Hellboy knows that whatever is coming next won’t be pleasant. Acclaimed horror writer Christopher Golden joins forces with award-winning comic-book writer/artist Mike Mignola in crafting this stunning and suspenseful prose addition to the Hellboy saga.
