Thirteen year old Thorgil is leading a quite normal life in 1930's Oslo, until one day everything is turned upside down. Thorgil discovers that he is half dwarf, and that his father, whom he has never met, is King of the Mountain Dwarves.Accompanied by two warriors, he leaves the security of home and sets out on a journey through a restless Europe to the Kingdom of the Dwarves in the wild mountains of Tien Shan. But the kingdom is threatened by both internal and external enemies.Thorgil soon becomes an important participant in the struggle to prevent the dwarves' kingdom from going under.Demonenes sang is the first book in The Wandering Star Trilogy, and Chris Tvedt's debut as a children's book writer.
