INFORMATION OM PRODUKTEN
A REDISCOVERED FANTASY CLASSIC - INTRODUCED BY SAMANTHA SHANNON
'No one knows better how to spin a fairy tale than Naomi Mitchison' OBSERVER
'I felt, very powerfully, that I had been waiting for Travel Light' AMAL EL-MOHTAR, author of THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR
'Disarmingly familiar, like a memory only half-recalled. You will love this book' HOLLY BLACK, author of BOOK OF NIGHT
'Perhaps her nurse turned into a bear and carried her away into the forest. Perhaps she was brought up by bears and dragons. Perhaps it was better for her in the end than being a king's child.'
'That was never the story,' said Modolf.
'Forget the story,' said Halla.
Halla is the daughter of a king, cast out as a baby into a world of danger and enchantment. She is raised by bears, lives amongst dragons, converses with Valkyries and avoids warmongering heroes. But an encounter with Odin All-Father sets her on a new path as a wanderer through the world, and to a final choice. Is her role in the story already written - as a king's child, an adopted dragon, or a fearless heroine - or can she travel light?
Weaving folklore, fairy tale and Norse myth into a shimmering, witty and slyly subversive tapestry, Travel Light is a rediscovered gem of classic fantasy writing - perfect for fans of Tolkien, Philip Pullman and Ursula K. Le Guin.
