Troll Fell
Troll Fell | Katherine Langrish
2 posts | 6 read
Bearing all the markings of a truely classic novel, Troll Fell, is an exciting adventure-filled tale of Peer, his evil uncles, treasure and wicked trolls. Peer Ulfsson stood miserably at his father's funeral pyre, watching the sparks whirl up like millions of shining spirits streaking away into the dark. But someone else is also at the funeral. Peer's half-uncle, Baldur Grimsson. Peer watches helplessly as Uncle Baldur sells his father's property and pockets the money. Peer is then forced to move away from the world he knows in Hammerhaven, and live with his two half-uncles at their mill near Troll Fell. Peer hopes his other uncle will be more welcoming and less ferocious than Baldur, but Baldur is an identical twin, and Grim Grimsson is just as mean-spirited and greedy as his brother. Peer lives a life of servitude, with only the company of his faithful dog, Loki, until he meets spirited Hilde, whose family farm on Troll Fell, and Nis, his uncles' house spirit. Between them, they must foil a plot by the Grimsson brothers to sell one boy and one girl to the trolls who live on Troll Fell. But the Grimssons want riches, and they will do anything to get them. And as everyone knows, trolls are rich! but they are also cunning.

I discovered the first book in this series, Troll Fell, in a charity shop and read it the same day and immediately had to find the next two online. They are based on Norse culture and mythology and quite dark in places but very enjoyable and well worth a read! #yafiction #katherinelangrish #fantasy #ya

A Filipino-British author friend sent me this via Amazon simply because she thought I will enjoy it. One of the books that welcomed me when I got back from Shanghai. I love having book kindreds from all over the world. Straight from the UK (well, Amazon, to be precise - but it's the thought that counts). It appears that this title is not yet in Litsy's database so I am just using Langrish's other book as reference.
