It's been five hundred years since the end of the world and society has rebuilt itself anew. The old Norse gods are no longer revered. Their tales have been banned. Magic is outlawed, and a new religion - the Order - has taken its place.

In a remote valley in the north, fourteen-year-old Maddy Smith is shunned for the ruinmark on her hand - a sign associated with the Bad Old Days. But what the villagers don't know is that Maddy has skills. According to One-Eye, the secretive Outlander who is Maddy's only real friend, her ruinmark - or runemark, as he calls it - is a sign of Chaos blood, magical powers and gods know what else...

Now, as the Order moves further north, threatening all the Worlds with conquest and Cleansing, Maddy must finally learn the truth to some unanswered questions about herself, her parentage, and her powers.

From the bestselling author of CHOCOLAT and THE GOSPEL OF LOKI comes a fantastical tale of magic, adventure and Norse mythology.

Read by Rosie Jones, with a preface and prophecy read by Joanne Harris.

I've had the book in paperback for more than a decade and the story is one of my favourites. The characters, the plot, the themes... An adventure full of turbulence, thriller, plots and betrayals, gods and magic, humour and drama... At the same time, people facing a crisis and trying to claim an identity for themselves. I read it every year and I always find something new to grab my attention..

But the audio version... Rosie Jones is a true master of the craft. She has grasped the essence of each of the characters and she has managed to bring them fully to life. Even without the names, you can distinguish each character and you can also glimpse into parts of their characters that are left unsaid in the story. A remarkable story turned to a masterpiece!

Spectacular!
