DAS BUCH DES WISPERNS

Peter Schwindt

(Die Gilead Saga 1)

The first book in a great trilogy set in a medieval world full of magical creatures and ominous prophecies...
THE BOOK OF WHISPERING (Book One of the Gilead-Saga)

Since birth, Hakim knows that he is destined to die on his 17th birthday, unless he succeeds in breaking a deadly family curse. So he travels half the world in search of a powerful manuscript: the Book of Whisperings, whose pages reveal the secrets of life and death.

At the same time, Finn is trying to find his way in a world that is not his own. Following his fall into a well, he has lost his memory. The only thing he brought back from the well is a mysterious crystal ball. It connects him to a life he can no longer remember.

And far up north, Berit and the other Viking girls and women of her village are on the run from a sinister menace that has cost her father Jarl Thorulf and all the other men their lives - and souls. All Berit could save is Dream Shard, her grandmother's sword.

Fate brings all three together on the coast of Britain. They do not yet suspect that the future of all existence depends on their joint actions while an ancient dark force is seeking its way into the world.


THE BOOK OF WHISPERINGS is the first in a gripping fantasy trilogy in which historical fact and fiction merge to create a new world.

THE BOOK OF WHISPERINGS (March 2021) is to be followed by THE EYE OF TRUTH in Spring 2022, and
THE SHARD OF HOPE in Spring 2023.
