Book 3

Book 3 begins with the story of a Swedish prince, Hother, in an alternate version of the story of Höðr and the death of the god Baldr (here presented as a false god named Balderus). Hother eventually does become King in Denmark after the deaths of Rolf Krake and his usurper Hiartuar.

The second half of the book introduces Amleth, as a grandson of the Danish king Rorik.
