The city of Trolberg has some dark secrets to reveal... and our favourite blue-haired adventurer is about to discover them!

Hilda and her mum have relaxed into city life now, but Hilda is starting to shirk her responsibilities and has enough magical friends and tricky ways that it's easy for her to defy her mother's wishes. After a daring escape attempt, the pair find themselves on the other side of the wall, furious with each other and forced to embark on a dangerous adventure through the land of the trolls

Industry Reviews

"Plain smart and moving. John Stanley's Little Lulu meets Miyazaki." -- Guillermo Del Toro

Pearson’s utter lack of pretension keeps Hilda feeling fresh, while his reading of folktales and Tove Jansson’s Moomin series embeds Hilda in the long history of children’s stories. […] Hilda’s dilemmas, while fantastic, also feel real […] Pearson has found a lovely new way to dramatize childhood demons, while also making you long for your own cruise down the fjords. -- The New Yorker

One of Today's Parent's 25 Best Kids' Books For Fall 2016

a significant turning point in the series […]Pearson's proven that this isn't a series of books that repeat actions from episode to episode, but rather a coherent serial that's slowly building to something more fantastic, calling back to old characters and details that may not have seemed important when they were introduced. -- Rob Clough

Hilda is back and as charming and adventurous as ever. -- The Wandering Bookseller
