One day, a soaking wet sea captain arrives with a hand-drawn map, and The Collector rallies his best crew for a new expedition.

Alexander Løken's critically-acclaimed debut book, The Troll Skull, was nominated for both ARK's children's book prize and Bokslukerprisen.

Now we can but wait for the trilogy's exciting conclusion! ‘This is so refreshing a fantasy series that it can only leave people wanting more, and not only young readers, but also young-at-heart adult readers who can’t get enough of dark depths and impenetrable secrets. This is simply amazing.’ HAMAR ARBEIDERBLAD ‘The story itself is also exciting and unpredictable, with a logical coherence that the reader will be quick to grasp. … captivating and well-written fantasy book for young people.’ VÅRT LAND
