The Sea of Trolls
This book is awesome one of my all time favourites. The storyline is good and easy to follow and the characters are humorous and have strong personalities.

The characters and places are described so vividly that you think that you are really there. Also I like the way she has used actual facts from that era to write the book.

This is a really good book and I would advise people to read it.

The Sea of Trolls
This book is an amazing story that keeps you wondering what will happen next. It's very fast paced and you find a character you love right away. It's an excellent read and deserves to be made into a movie asap.

The Sea of Trolls Review
I really loved the book. I recommend to anyone who wants to learn about Vikings. The plot line was just wonderful, I just loved the Shelid Madien Thorgil. It would wonderful if this book would be made into a movie. Nancy Farmer did a wonderful job. I even learned a couple of words in Northmen. Great Book, Nancy Farmer.

Check this out!!!
This book was totally awesome with thrills, and everything! I couldn't even sleep at night I was so excited! I hope she comes out with another, because this one was really cool! Once I got started I could not put it down! Her words just strung together into the awesomest story ever! So check this book out!!!

Powerful and Riveting
I am an eleven year old and i am in the sixth grade. I previously read Nancy's other book " The House of the Scorpion." I just think she has an extraordinary imagination and mind. I absolutely loved " The sea of Trolls." There were so many twist and turns that I never wanted to stop reading it. I give Nancy two thumbs up on this fabulous book.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!
I love this book! It very creative and has a lot of twist and turns, and things that happen that you don't expect. This book had people calling me a book worm because I was reading it every chance I got!! AN the truth is that I am not a book worm at all but the way that she put this book together is amazing and I love it. I like exiting, heartracing, sad, sorrowful, happy, joyful, and books that have a lot of twists and turns then this book is for you!!!

My thoughts
This was an Excellent book in my best personal opinion.It took a few pages to really get into the book for me but after the first few pages i couldn`t put it down.I read it every second i got.The characters all were great,but my favorite was Thorgil she was always ready to throw herself into the heat of battle.Another thing I liked about the book was the descriptive wordings,the author always has a unique way of saying something.Bottom line this is an awesome book that i think any reader would enjoy i certainly did.
