This title concludes the epic tale “The Winning of Aleta”. This is followed by a sequence called “Matrimony”, which ends with a newlywed queen adjusting to the luxurious, exciting court life at Camelot.

In Vol. 6, Valiant and Aleta journey to “The New World”, a 16-month epic that allows Foster to draw some of his spectacular native Canadian backgrounds, and during which Aleta gives birth to Arn. Most of the rest of the book is taken up with the action-packed “The Mad King”, during which Val, back at Camelot, confronts the evil, fat little King Tourien of Cornwall.

In Vol. 7, Valiant now enters the 1950s: The Thule winter is hard and bleak, and a prince who has designs on Aleta must be dealt with.
