It’s been a busy start to the year at Mightier Than the Sword UK Publications, which has admittedly been hampered by the horrible bugs that were going around. However, we have persevered and there are a few exciting things coming up in April – the first of which we are slightly late reporting on!
Yes, the very popular children’s series, The Children of Ribe by C.S. Woolley has a new instalment.
With the Arm Rings of Yngvar saga complete, the new book, TREASON, marks the start of a brand new saga – The Bergkonge Saga.
Set twenty years after HOME ends, TREASON catches us up with what has happened to our favourite Viking children and launches into the next nefarious machinations to shake the Dane lands.
When loyalty is everything, treason is unforgiveable
The Dane lands have seen years of peace. The magic of the Arm Rings of Yngvar has kept the peace for twenty years, but now the actions of a few threaten to unravel the powerful magic that protects all life.
Join Erland, Eva,Christian, Dalla, Riki, Beatrix, Pieter, Camila, Joas, Ragnfrith, and Oleg asthey come together once more to avenge treason and set right the balance of power. In a land where honour, fealty and loyalty are prized more highly than anything else, and magic and myth still hold sway, their quest to set things right has never been more dangerous.
The Children of Ribe is a Viking Saga for children bringing the culture and mythology of the Danish Vikings to life. The book series has been influenced by Enid Blyton, Arthur Ransome, Susan Cooper, J R R Tolkien and C. S. Lewis.
