Bücher der Reihe The Far Northern Land Saga

When the cold hand reaches southward,reaches with its frozen fingers,comes a child into the Northland,all the clans to bring together. As L├╢hi, the Witch of the North, unleashes war upon the Seven Clans of Iron-Age Finland, the famous wizard V├ñin├ñm├╢inen leads a desperate effort to stop her. The great smith Ilmarinen kindles hope when he reforges the magical Sampo, the ancient Finns'' most powerful totem. But only King Egan and Ulla-the Child of the Prophecy-can guarantee victory for their people.  Ulla sets out on the Trail for Singers, a wizard''s life path, and Egan embarks on his own journey to become the heir of mighty Lemmink├ñinen, the last High King of the Far Northern Land. Drawn together by both love and destiny, the two young heroes vow to end L├╢hi''s rampage, but neither can imagine the surprise that awaits at journey''s end, which will change the Far Northern Land forever.     THE HEIR OF LEMMINK├äINEN, Book II of the Far Northern Land Saga, goes where no epic fantasy has gone before-Finnish mythology and the world of the Kalevala, where legendary heroes like the wizard V├ñin├ñm├╢inen mix with original characters like Ulla and Egan to create a unique mosaic wholly new to fantasy literature.

When the cold hand reaches southward,reaches with its frozen fingers,comes a child into the northland,all the clans to bring together. While Löhi, the Witch of the North, lays waste to the Far Northern Land town-by-town, Ulla's power continues to grow. Strong, pitiless, and relentless, Ulla measures all others against her utter devotion to their seemingly doomed cause. Accompanied by Kaukomieli, the young wizard whose love for her conflicts with his sense of duty, she prowls the Marches ambushing Löhi's servants and giving no quarter. Feared by all as much as she is loved, Ulla is now her people's final hope. In desperation, Ulla and Väinämöinen journey in spirit-form to hell to bargain with its lord for a weapon with which to slay the Witch. The quest takes them at last to Pohjola itself and a final confrontation with Löhi that powerfully evokes the Finnish heroic spirit and leads to a shocking, unexpected denouement. THE QUEEN OF POHJOLA, Book III of the Far Northern Land Saga, goes where no epic fantasy has gone before-Finnish mythology and the world of the Kalevala, where legendary heroes like the wizard Väinämöinen mix with original characters like Ulla to create a unique mosaic wholly new to fantasy literature.
