"The last Norse king of Caithness, Hrolf Earthstar and his 12 champions are woken from a centuries-long sleep when an archaeologist finds their grave. He decides to carry on his ancient war against the Sourcerer-King, and must face such perils as BBC film crews and the Bakerloo line along the way." - amazon.co.uk synopsis

A fantastic romp through a world where past mythology meets the present and you're not quite sure what's going to happen next. I thoroughly enjoyed this, and it's the perfect length to dive in and out of at lunch breaks, though I would rather have read it all continuously!
