The Girl in the Snow

Ann-Christin Gjersøe

The Girl in the Snow is the beginning of a series set at the Sommersholm manor in the 1800s. Sommersholm is a venerable manor that has belonged to the Adler family for generations. Two young women with very different lives live there: the landowner's daughter, Rose, and Alise, a maid. Alise's grandmother got to know the Adler family's darkest secrets as a young chambermaid at Sommersholm. Until the day she died, she never revealed to anyone what she saw and heard. But the secrets did not follow her to the grave. After three years in Australia, the heir of Sommersholm, Birkthorn Adler, returns home to Norway. He went there against his father's will, and three years of separation have not dampened the strife between father and son. When he left, Alise was a young girl, but she has not forgotten the landowner's son who saved her life on a freezing cold winter night many years ago.

The Knights Go For Gold

The Knights Go For Gold

Bjørn F. Rørvik

The two little knights are back, just in time for the large knight tournament. And just like last time there is some seriousness beneath all the silliness: Why can’t girls do the same as boys? And does one HAVE to be tough and brave, just because one is a boy? The Middle Ages are almost at an end, after all! It’s the annual knight tournament in Klampenburg, and Sir Rosebush and Sir Bang have been training for a whole year. They’ve probably snuck away a bit too because it’s a little dangerous to do both sword fighting and archery – not to mention jousting. (That’s when someone tries to push the other one down from the horse with a long pole.) They don’t really want to take part, but Princess Begonia does! The problem is just that the King has said she’s not allowed to take part because she’s a girl. So the two little knights must help her to secretly prepare for the tournament. They have to train her for the exercises and find armour that will hide her face. Neither of those things are easy! Bjørn F. Rørvik is a master at silly humour with a good undertone, his stories are a joy to read out loud and in this book there’s loads of fun for children and adults. Camilla Kuhn has her own twist on the knights – they are recognisable, but still a little bit different from last time.

The Rooms' Book

Helene Imislund

Helene Imislund’s poetry follows a child through the first hazy memories of a room. The poems move through the concrete and the experienced, between rooms that once were and places that still exist. And when the rooms are explored specifically, the question of memory also arises – which rooms are we able to remember? Is it possible to remember an event without remembering the room where it took place?

The Snow Leopard

Grethe Bøe

The Snow Leopard is a thrilling journey through the treacherous landscape of the Arctic, as the dedicated fighter pilot, Ylva Nordahl, save the world from the threat of the fifth colonists. The powerful nations of the USA, Russia, and China vie for control of the Arctic and its valuable resources. As the stakes grow higher, Ylva finds herself drawn into a deeper conflict: One that pits traditionalism against Western liberalism, and which threatens to tear the world apart. Unknown forces are planning a terror attack on one of NATO’s nuclear-powered submarines on Svalbard, and the only one who can stop it is Ylva. Following the success of Mayday, Ylva Nordahl is back in another political thriller with fast-paced action, a gripping plot, and nuanced exploration of contemporary politics and global power struggles. It is a story about sacrifice, courage, and the fight for survival in a rapidly changing world, and it will keep you on the edge of your seat from first to last page. «Two years ago Grethe Bøe made her debut as a crime/thriller-writer with Mayday, and I stated it was the best debut I'd ever read in the genre. Now figther pilot Ylva Nordahl and Bøe have returned in the sequel The Snow Leopard, and it is just as good.»Tidens krav, five/six stars

Sofia finds a song

It creeps through the streets and up through the floor she stands on, inside the soles of her shoes, it tickles her toes, her feet must dance, they are not able to stop, it’s as if the song is dancing with her rather than the other way around. But where is the sound coming from? In Sofia Finds a Song we’re taken on an adventure to find a melody with magnetic powers. Because when you find your own song, it is yours forever.
