Young Adult
Though the definiton of a “young adult book” is somewhat up for debate, for the purposes of this page we are defining it as books suitable for children ages 12-18 and beyond, especially those told from the perspective of characters the same age. From the most delightfully cheesy and cliche stories to the most creative and original, YA, at its best, embraces everything that we love about books. Revist an old favorite from your youth or discover something new, no matter your age.
The Raven Rings: Odin's Child [volume 1 of the series]
The Raven Rings: Odin's Child [volume 1 of the series]
The first book in Siri Pettersen's epic Raven Rings trilogy comes at last to the United States.
Fifteen winters old, Hirka learns that she is an Odin's child – a tailless rot from another world. Despised. Dreaded. And hunted. She no longer knows who she is, and someone wants to kill her to keep it a secret. But there are worse things than humans, and Hirka is not the only creature to have broken through the gates...
‘Odin’s Child’ is unique fantasy with Norse roots. An epic clash of xenophobia, blind faith and the right or will to lead.
