Harald Harding
Harald Harding is an adventure book and motion picture series published in the absolute royal federation and has reached rather high popularity amongst young men and boys alike. Depicting the adventures of the long family line of the fictional Harding household, a long line of adventurers and gunslingers that over the years have been involved in high adventure all over what is today the Absolute royal federation no matter how little sense such adventures make from a historical standpoint. The most outrageous example of this is "Harald Harding 16; Amongst the death worshippers!" that takes place in Sydvinland at the height of the footland wars where the various mountain kingdoms tried to ensure dominance over the mountain foothills from the coastal city states despite Scanderan contact with the Sydvinlanders being unrecorded at the time.
The average book is very formulaic in it's structure and most of the Harald Hardings are very interchangeable with no noticeable personality changes between them nor any defining features. Something that is specially odd as most of the main characters have married foreign women over the cause of the series. Something that makes the trademark blue eyes and blond braided hair always described in the protagonists odd. In the movies have this fact been made rather more obvious as the actor Birke Belvaldssen have to date played ever single Harald Harding.
Often compared to the Tales of Rikard Guardsman due to both being adventure stories aimed at younger audiences and filled with morals and other useful tips have some people noticed that while Rikard Guardsman tends to be more about preparing boys for soldiering are Harald Harding more individualistic and tends to teach it's reader more generaly useful things. Good examples of this is that while very historically inaccurate is the book and movie series very good for wilderness survival lessons. Often does these take the form of being very descriptive of how the Haralds find drinkable water, skin animals, or catch fish and the end of the books often include shorter comic sections where these lessons are repeated with pictures where Harald explain to the reader how to best go around such tasks.
