Freya is an ordinary girl living in modern Britain, but with a twist: people still worship the Viking gods. One evening, stuck with her dad on his night shift at the British Museum, she is drawn to the Lewis Chessmen and Heimdall's Horn. Unable to resist, she blows the horn, waking three chess pieces from their enchantment.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Francesca Simon

Francesca got the idea for the series by accident, when a friend asked her to write a story about a terrible child. The character came to her instantly. She immediately imagined an aggressive, impulsive, and stubborn little boy, the despair of well-meaning but vulnerable parents…
On the other hand, she was also interested in writing about the rivalry between siblings, and about the families in which the parents decide that one child is "the good one" and the other "the bad one" (contrast between the brothers Peter Perfect and Henry). Francesca confesses, moreover, that she adores Peter Perfect, because she feels touched by his desperate need to be good, while Henry is obviously everyone's favorite.
