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 finds her at a crossroads: is her story already written, or will 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56367975661941,"sku":"9780349020549","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780349020549.jpg?v=1763548370","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780349020549","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
