«Riget ved vejens ende» is the historical novel by Jan Guillou, published by Modtryk in paperback (468 pages, in Danish).
Arn Magnusson returns to Västra Götaland in 1192 after twenty years of penance in the Holy Land, bringing knowledge and settlers who will drive a new Europe and the nascent kingdom of Sweden. Peace is at risk: his love for Cecilia is greater than power, Archbishop Absalon schemes, and Denmark turns its cavalry into a weapon.

Recommended for readers of historical fiction and medieval fiction, with an interest in twelfth-century Sweden and the Crusades trilogy.
