Fifteen winters old, Hirka learns that she is an Odin' s child - a tailless rot from another world. Despised. Dreaded. And hunted. She no longer knows who she is, and someone wants to kill her to keep it a secret. But there are worse things than humans, and Hirka is not the only creature to have broken through the gates. . . Odin' s Child is unique fantasy with Norse roots. An epic clash of xenophobia, blind faith and the right or will to lead. The first in a trilogy, Odin' s Child is a thrilling modern fantasy epic.
Siri Pettersen made her sensational debut in 2013 with the Norwegian publication of Odin' s Child, the first book in The Raven Rings trilogy, which has earned numerous awards and nominations at home and abroad. Siri has a background as a designer and comics creator. Her roots are in Finnsnes and Trondheim, but she now lives in Oslo, where you' re likely to find her in a coffee shop. According to fellow writers, her superpower is "mega motivation"--the ability to inspire other creative souls. Sian Mackie is a translator of Scandinavian literature into English. They were born in Scotland and have an MA in Scandinavian Studies and an MSc in Literary Translation as a Creative Practice from the Uni versity of Edinburgh. They have translated a wide range of works, from young adult and children' s literature--including Ingunn Thon' s A Post card to Ollis, which was nominated for the 2021 Carnegie Medal--to thrillers and nonfiction. They live in Southampton on the south coast of England. Paul Russell Garrett translates from Norwegian and Danish, with drama holding a particular interest for him. He has translated a dozen plays and has a further ten published translations to his name, including Lars Mytting' s The Sixteen Trees of the Somme, long-listed for the International Dublin Literary Award, and a pair of novels by Christina Hesselholdt, Companions and Vivian. Originally from Vancouver, Paul is based in east London.
