Overview

All must choose where they stand and where their loyalties lie. The Bergkonge threatens all life throughout the Nine Realms. His son sits upon the throne of men in the realm of Midgard, the dark elves have taken Svártálfheimr in his name, and Álfheimr's borders are threatened by the spreading darkness. Yet there are those that resist the corruption of the Bergkonge; those that have spent their lives standing strong even when all hope seems lost. The Children of Ribe are scattered across the Danelands, but they are not alone as alliances between old and new friends can be forged when the survival of the Nine Realms depends on it. Join three generations of warriors as they fight for their homes, their lives and their freedom. =+=+= The Children of Ribe is a Viking Saga for children bringing the culture and mythology of the Danish Vikings to life.
