War - Book 2 - The Children of Ribe

He’s lost in a world of myths and legends. Can this Nordic fraidy cat stand shoulder-to-shoulder with his older friends in the battle against evil and make it home again?

Riki Andersen has always followed his big brother into trouble. Overwhelmed by the dangers of a quest that are far more daunting than childhood hi-jinx. His strength lies in his wits, not in his sword. Terrified by the warriors pursing him and his companions, Riki will need more than his brother’s bravado to survive.
 
As war breaks out between the clans, Riki must find his cunning and his courage. It is up to him to claim the arm ring that can bring peace back to the Danelands. But how can a boy marshal such things when standing alone against the might of a dragon?
 
Can Riki and his fearless friends battle against the darkness and save their land?
