Bloodaxe
Children's Books2026 · 128 pp · Age 9+

Bloodaxe

Aleksander Kirkwood Brown

She was feared as a witch, hated as a queen and forgotten by history. Now, for the first time, Gunnhild, Queen of Norway, finally gets her own saga. Bloodaxe – The Saga of Queen Gunnhild is a gripping, visually stunning graphic novel that reimagines the life of one of the Viking Age’s most fascinating and misunderstood women. Married to King Erik Bloodaxe, who murdered his brothers to seize the throne, Gunnhild was mother to eight warrior sons and a strategist in her own right. For centuries, she’s been portrayed as manipulative and cruel. But in this version, she’s revealed as a complex, intelligent woman fighting to protect her family in a violent, male-dominated world. Blending drama, history and myth, this is Viking storytelling at its most powerful.

Born Free

Marta Breen

Religious control and women's fight for freedom – an important book for young readers Born Free is a fascinating and thought-provoking graphic novel about the impact religion has had, and continues to have, on women's freedom. It explores how religious practices have restricted women’s rights and shaped their lives across different cultures and societies. In the wake of the women-led uprising in Iran and the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan, religious control over women’s lives has become more visible than it has been in decades. Acclaimed feminist and author Marta Breen places these current events in a broader historical and global context, showing how religious fundamentalism continues to threaten women’s rights even in Western societies. Based on thorough research, Born Free tackles topics such as forced marriage, education bans, dress codes, and female genital mutilation in a respectful yet direct manner. The book’s core message is clear: everyone has the right to decide over their own life, while also respecting freedom of religion, as long as it does not violate basic human rights. Born Free is a vital book that encourages reflection and conversation about the role of religion in society and the position of women within the world’s faiths. Sunniva Fluge Hole’s striking illustrations make complex topics accessible for readers aged 12 and up. The book builds on Marta Breen’s international bestsellers Women in Battle and The Fall og the Patriarchy, sold to 30 and 14 countries respectively. While these dealt with general discrimination against women, Born Free focuses specifically on religious oppression and control over women's bodies and lives.
