A deadly tournament. A divided world. Three fates bound by fire and shadow.

In the glittering capital of Falinvik, the Leikr echo the old myths—where survival is the only story remembered. Perfect for fans of Shadow and Bone and The Hunger Games, this third installment of the Nordri Series, The Leikr Trials, is a Nordic-inspired YA fantasy brimming with ancient magic, futuristic intrigue, and slow-burn romance in a high-stakes contest where nothing is as it seems.

Elin Bodil never asked for power, but when her visions pull her deep into the Resistance's fight, she must master gifts she barely understands to keep her friends alive. Torn between her growing feelings for two very different allies, Elin faces a choice that could alter the balance of the clans forever.

Inside the deadly Leikr, Aedan Grady is pushed to his limits. Shackled by secrets, manipulated by the Chairman, and hunted by rival teams, he must decide whether his strength is his own-or a weapon forged to control him. Each victory brings him closer to freedom… and to a truth he isn't ready to face.

Raised to serve the Stór-menni, Tristan Rees has always followed orders. But when forbidden discoveries unravel the foundations of his loyalty, he is forced onto a razor’s edge between duty and rebellion. One step could mark him a traitor—or spark a revolution.

As myth and technology collide in a world on the brink of war, Elin, Aedan, and Tristan are drawn into a lethal struggle where trust is fragile, love is dangerous, and survival may demand the ultimate sacrifice.

While reading the first two books of the Nordri Series is recommended, it isn’t necessary. The Leikr Trials includes a unique, character-voiced recap in the front matter, ensuring new readers can dive straight into the story while longtime fans enjoy a seamless continuation of the saga.
