Well behaved women rarely make history. But they still end up as the monsters in folklore. Bounty hunter Faline Frey is huldra-a powerful folkloric woman, able to grow branches and cover her body in defensive bark. She's not the only one. All throughout the United States live secret sects of folkloric women, each group created with unique gifts from their Goddess. They are called Wild Women. And they spend their days living among humans. Repressing abilities they were born with, the very attributes the Hunters deem evil. The Hunters say they're protecting the folkloric women. Their organization of supernatural men claim to have been given strength and authority by God to save the Wild Women from themselves. To Faline, their constant scrutiny feels more like oppression. But when her sister goes missing, Faline needs more than her bounty hunter skills to find her sibling. She must leave the protection of huldra territory and rely on the inner Wild she's been taught to shun. To find her sister, Faline must unearth parts of herself to follow the twisted trail of Hunter propaganda and missing Wild Women. But the Hunters have a longer reach than she imagined, and their organization is determined to prevent the folkloric groups from joining arms to get their sisters and mothers back. Faline's efforts have placed her squarely in the Hunter's crosshairs. What started as a rescue will end in war.

'Morgan Daimler has gifted us with a well-crafted and engaging introduction to the Goddess Freya. Truly a must read for anyone interested in or already working with this powerful and intriguing Goddess.' Ceri Norman, author of A Beginner’s Guide to Ogham Divination and Faerie Stones The most popular of the Norse goddesses is the Vanic deity Freya, found across the Norse myths and into modern mass media, yet often obscured by contradictory tales and external moral coding. Freya is an alluring deity of magic and fertility, a being so important in the mythology that gods and giants fought over her, yet she is never shown as a passive prize to be won only as a forceful being with agency and will of her own. Who is this powerful goddess who has left such a profound mark across not only Norse culture but also wider Western culture? Pagan Portals-Freya is a basic introduction to the Norse Goddess Freya that covers her history, mythology, associations, and modern appearances, and offers readers suggestions for how to begin connecting to Freya in their own lives.

This book assesses the importance of poetry for the Old Icelandic literary flowering of c. 1150–1350. It addresses the apparent paradox that an extremely conservative form of literature, namely skaldic poetry, was at the core of the most innovative literary and intellectual experiments in the period. The book argues that this cannot simply be explained as a result of strong local traditions, as in most previous scholarship. Thus, for instance, the author demonstrates that the mix of prose and poetry found in kings’ sagas and sagas of Icelanders is roughly contemporary to the written sagas. Similarly, he argues that treatises on poetics and mythology, including Snorri’s Edda, are new to the period, not only in their textual form, but also in their systematic mode of analysis. The book contends that what is truly new in these texts is the method of the authors, derived from Latin learning, but applied to traditional forms and motifs as encapsulated in the skaldic tradition. In this way, Christian Latin learning allowed for its perceived opposite, vernacular oral literature of pagan extraction, to reach full fruition and to largely replace the very literature which had made this process possible in the first place.

'Iceland's outstanding crime novelist' Daily Express On a jagged, bleak lava field just outside Reykjavik stands the Gallows Rock. Once a place of execution, it is now a tourist attraction. Until this morning, when a man was found hanging from it... The nail embedded in his chest proves it wasn't suicide. But when the police go to his flat, a further puzzle awaits: a four-year-old boy has been left there. He doesn't seem to have any link with the victim, his parents cannot be found, and his drawings show he witnessed something terrible. As detective Huldar hunts the killer, and child psychologist Freyja looks for the boy's parents, the mystery unfolds: a story of violence, entitlement, and revenge. Praise for Yrsa Sigurdardottir 'Iceland's outstanding crime novelist' Daily Express 'A magnificent writer' Karin Slaughter 'The undisputed queen of Icelandic Noir' Simon Kernick 'Believe all the hype - this is crime at its best' Heat NetGalley Reader Reviews 'Just as compelling as the previous books in the series. All of Yrsa Sigurðardóttir's books are extremely well written and a joy to read. There is plenty of suspense and twists in this story (. . .) I read this book in one sitting, I was unable to put it down. Highly recommended' 'There is such a skill to the author's writing, the way in which she creates tension and atmosphere and uses setting to bring and edge to the story, that it is difficult to put down. And she brings such a range of emotions out in me as a reader that I feel slightly battered myself when I finish reading . . . Truly powerful storytelling and characters I have come to love' 'I was hooked from the very first page and enthralled and completely drawn in throughout the book. (. . .) This is a story which builds and weaves perfectly. It's so twisty'

Y2K... a time when the music world was filled with new directions and a lot of new groups. A time far past the music I grew up with. A time when my teenage children were discovering their own musical likes and dislikes. Teen Pop... Dance Pop... Bubblegum Pop... Brit Pop... Euro Pop... to name just a few of the genres. Enter four bubbly, high-energy, teenagers from Sweden, with voices that worked perfectly together. Discovered by another Swedish vocalist, who traded in singing for songwriting and managing, these kid's amazing journey began in the blink of an eye... They opened for a number of established acts, released their first CD in multiple countries, performed on a number of major TV shows, had songs on at least three movie soundtracks, released a DVD of their lives on the road, sold a million records, and finished recording their second album as well. The thing is, they managed all this, in three short years... Then one day, as quickly as it started, it was over. They went their own ways... back to their own lives. Fifteen years later, Alexander Brooks drops into their lives... and pretty much upends all of them. Alex has just one motto - 'All Things Are Possible', and he fully intends to prove it. It takes him eight months to not only convince them he isn't crazy, but that his 'idea' is one of the better ones he has come up with. Best of all, is the reason he gives them to drop everything, and play along... 'Because you can... '

The new novel from the internationally bestselling, prizewinning, queen of Icelandic crime. All he wants is for them to say sorry. The police find out about the crime the way everyone does: on Snapchat. The video shows the terrified victim begging for forgiveness. When her body is found, it is marked with a number 2... Detective Huldar joins the investigation, bringing child psychologist Freyja on board to help question the murdered teenager's friends. Soon, they uncover that Stella was far from the angel people claim - but even so, who could have hated her enough to kill? Then another teenager goes missing, and more clips are sent. Freyja and Huldar can agree on two things at least: the truth is far from simple. And the killer is not done yet. A brilliantly suspenseful story about the dark side of social media, The Absolution will make you wonder what you should have said sorry for...
