(2) YA Runestone Saga series. Through the power of his grandfather's set of Norse runestones and the advice of his grandfather's ghostly "fetch," or double, Sky inhabits the body of Bjørn, his Viking berserker ancestor. This first volume of the Runestone Saga successfully combines a runic puzzle with horror, fantasy, betrayal, and gripping historical fiction. Humphreys commands a fantastically dark tone, creating a credibly occult feel.
