Troll Fell
This is the sort of book you might read until midnight under the covers with a flashlight, trying to find out what happens next. And when you finally turn the light off in every dark corner you see a troll shape. It's about a boy named Peer. He lived happily in Havenhammer until his father died. Then at his funeral evil Uncle Baldur comes and whisks him off to Troll Fell. In Troll Fell he is treated like a slave his twin uncles are the most hated people there, and old Grannie Green-teeth wanders about at night waiting to pull you into her underwater lair. The one good side is Hilde, the daughter of his uncles arch enemy. They become quick friends and fast trouble makers. But the trolls are out and getting more dangoures by the minute. Will they be able to help Nis, crash a troll wedding deep underground, and save Loki from a savage fighting dog? But most importantly there succeeding or failing holds the life or death of Sidurd and Sidgird. Then something wonderful and terrible altogether happens... Ral... Well that would be telling wouldn't it?

Maybe it's the title of the book, but your post makes me think of a book I love called The Sea of Trolls. The book is fantasy, but has roots in European history, which I find intriguing. -M
ReplyDeleteCool, this book is a fantasy but it's is completely made up and a little weird
