There, right in front of him it lies shining in the
sand!
It is a large, nugget of amber, smoothed by sand and
stones in the sea, and golden like the sun. In a few hours, the tide will once
again cover the tiny beach, and take back the glowing treasure.
Hauge bends down, picking up the amber. He turns it
slowly, watching it sparkle in the sunlight.
Certainly, this must be a gift from the Gods!
…..
Three years after the attack on Styrbjorn’s village
his brother, Sven, has been elected their new chieftain and the village has
been rebuilt.
After a successful summer voyage to Ireland the ships have returned and
everybody enjoy the celebrations and heroic tales of the voyage.
Sven decides time for vengeance has come, and that the best surprise attack on Haakon’s
town will be by going on horseback. Lauge Longsight and Hauge are allowed to
come too.
Before setting off they practice archery and combat techniques. Suddenly the
monks, Peter and Hannibal, return, and Hauge enjoys the company of his friend
again.
However, the raid of vengeance does not go as planned…
From the reviews (by Danish librarians):
"The description of the characters and the environment work well. The book
gives an excellent and convincing picture of the Viking era. The text is easy
to read, is written in an animated language with short sentences. It is printed
in large, clear type with a well arranged layout, and the b/w drawings
contribute to the mood and support the story well.
The book has an appealing, colour
illustrated cover.
Can be read from the age of 9 years."
"The story is still filled with drama
and strong emotions, and beautifully illustrated with lots of expressive pen
drawings by Pia Falck Pape."
