In Murky Mountain, every troll knows three things: stolen milk tastes better, never change your socks, and never—ever—step into the light. Above all else? Rules are rules.

Meet Wiilda af Dagglys: a young troll with an embarrassingly tiny tail and a head full of inconvenient questions no one wants her to ask.

With the Troll Trials looming, Wiilda is expected to steal treasure, honor tradition, and prove she’s a True Troll. But she'd rather rescue an orphaned moose calf—and uncover what’s really waiting beyond her dark, musty cave.

When a run-in with a stone giant sends her hurtling into the forbidden forest, Wiilda discovers a sunlit world of strange creatures, ancient secrets, and dangers her tribe never dared to mention. To survive, she’ll need more than courage—she’ll need to decide whether to follow the path laid out for her, or forge one of her own.

Inspired by Scandinavian folklore, Wiilda and the Troll Trials is a magical, mischievous middle-grade adventure for curious kids aged 8–12. Brimming with heart, humor, and just the right amount of troll trouble, it’s a story about friendship, bravery, and being wonderfully, wildly yourself.

Perfect for fans of The House with Chicken Legs, Magnus Chase, and How to Train Your Dragon.
