The Yelling Stones

All is not well at the Danish Viking court of Jelling. Home to the mysterious Yelling Stones (three witches turned into stone in the middle of screaming a fierce spell), it;s always been a place of power and a haven for ;the old ways;. But recently certain members of King Gorm;s court have been muttering about ;modernisation; - not that fourteen-year-old Princess Astrid is concerned about much of that. She;s far more worried that her family seem to want her inside sewing, or planning a marriage, rather than letting her explore the forest or ride her beautiful snow-white horse, Hestur.

But Astrid is about to find herself at the heart of a battle that will change her life forever. Leif, an ambitious and talented young poet, arrives at her father;s court with unsettling news. Leif announces he has been sent visions from the witches of the Yelling Stones, saying a dangerous and powerful force is coming - one that will change the face of Denmark - and only Astrid and Leif can stop it. But with danger all around them, including trolls, witches and a terrifying creature called ;The Beast;, can they tell who the real enemy is in time to stop them?
