In english

Dragonheart & Shapeshifter is the first book in a series of fantasy novels for both boys and girls of the age of 10 an older. The series chronicles the adventures of Vera and Albin, a sister and a brother, in a world called The Northlands. When Vera helps a group of peculiar dragons, she and her brother is drawn into an ongoing struggle between good and evil. A struggle where no one is who or what they first appear to be – not their enemies nor their friends and family. While Vera and Albin discover that they themselves possess extraordinary magical powers, they have to fight alongside the dragons to save the Northlands from evil.

“A dragon suddenly appeared in front of her. It wasn’t like it materialized out of thin air or that it came swooping down from the heavy clouds covering the sky. Instead the dragon came strolling out from its hiding place behind a large rock on the cliff ledge above her. Its scales were bright red, it had its wings tightly wrapped around its body and it looked like it was angry at everything and everyone around it. Had it not been for the fact that it was tiny enough to fit in the palm of her hand Vera would almost certainly be running away as fast as she could instead of standing there staring at it.”

Assassin, book two in the series, was released in November 2014.

Book three, Kings & Queens, was released in august 2015

Book four, Dark sorcerer, was released in august 2016, thus ending the series about Albin, Vera and the Northlands.
