But Torvicia is at war and a sinister threat brews in the north. The Jotnar, a race of demi-god giants, possess the means to sway the balance, especially Alfarin, the mightiest of them all.
Tabitha finds herself unwittingly at the heart of a council, made up of creatures who believe she is key in finding Alfarin and saving Torvicia from the impending evil.

With roots in myth and legend, The Search for Alfarin is a rich and magical blend of historical, action and fantasy fiction.
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
Loved this book. Such a great adventure novel. Set in late Victorian times, some of the language is a bit modern but who cares. A good story well told
A wonderful book rips along and keeps you guessing . Really enjoyed it
My teen who’s not a big book reader found this fun to read and kept going back to it! It even peaked the interest of my 6 year old who loves to read I did think this is a lot bigger of a book than they are used to but the cover is what made her want to read the book . so I would definitely recommend this book
