Summary

A thrilling novel from the best-selling children's author. When a Hag, an orphan boy and a troll called Ulf get sent to rescue a princess from an ogre, they expect it to be a fairly standard magical mission. But the ogre is depressed and the princess doesn't want to be rescued. The Norns who rule their fates decide to take things in hand - will the Ogre meet a bloody end, or will he get a happy ending?

It was ok but not the authors best book out of all the ones she has out.

Awarded 4 stars. It was ok but not one of the authors best. The narration was ok but the different voices were a little poor. Think this let the book down a bit. It was ok like I say.

The book and narration are truly wonderful

The narration by Jilly Bond really brings the characters in this book to life. It was hugely enjoyable and wonderful. I've listened to it many times and enjoy it incredibly every time, a true treat!
