"Halli Sveinsson lo daría todo por emular a su antepasado, el gran héroe Svein, pues ha credico escuchando todas sus proezas. Sin embargo, ni su físico ni haber nacido el día central del invierno le auguran nada bueno. Además, hace demasiadas preguntas y siempre mete las narices donde no le llaman. Este año, su casa organiza la Asamblea de Otoño, donde se reúnen los Doce Clanes del Valle. Todo tiene que salir perfecto, pero el carácter impetuoso de Halli le costará el destierro: deberá abandonar su protegido valle y descubrirá la terrible mentira en la que ha vivido."
When young Halli Sveinsson plays a trick on Ragnor of the House of Hakonsson, he sets in motion a chain of events that will forever alter his destiny, forcing him to leave home and go on a hero's quest where he encounters highway robbers, terrifying monsters, and a girl who may finally be his match.

Work Description
Blood feuds, epic battles and a undersized hero come together in this brilliant new fantasy adventure from the author of the bestselling Bartimaeus trilogyListen then, and I'll tell you again of the Battle of the Rock. But none of your usual wriggling, or I'll stop before I've begun . . . Halli loves the old stories from when the valley was a wild and dangerous place - when the twelve legendary heroes stood together to defeat the ancient enemy, the bloodthirsty Trows.Halli longs for adventure but these days the most dangerous thing in the valley is boredom. He tries to liven things up by playing practical jokes. But when one of his jokes goes too far, he reawakens an old blood feud and finds himself on a hero's quest after all. Along the way he meets a ruthless thief, a murderous rival, and a girl who may just be as fearless as he is . . . Jonathan Stroud has created an epic saga with a funny, unique spin, and an unforgettable anti-hero.
