Hi, I’m Saga Berg, the author of the Novella Series, Nordic Fairies. 

The Nordic Fairies series is about Svala and Viggo who turned into Liosálfar, light Nordic Fairies, over a thousand years ago in Sweden. As Liosálfar, Nordic light fairies, their job is to do good and to uphold a balance in the mortal world. A balance, often compromised by the Döckálfar, Nordic dark fairies. 

Since the day they turned Liosálfar Svala and Viggo have lived over a hundred lives together. Svala’s life always start at the age of fourteen, Viggo’s at fifteen. They are kept apart until they fulfill their assignments, during which time they live with their Liosálfar care takers, Trym and Alva. During this time, they are strictly forbidden to meet. They’re allowed to reunite only once they fulfill their assignments, and then only for as long as The High Council decides. Their time together usually lasts for years, on rare occasions months, once only a few weeks. Then, without warning, it starts all over again.

The Liosálfar age over time in each life, and they always remember their past lives and experiences, though no one remembers them.

In the first part of the series, sixteen year old Svala turns on her TV to find Viggo in the public light, a popular movie star. This is not only highly unexpected, it indicates something is wrong and that Viggo is attempting to contact Svala before their assignments are carried out. Svala fears he has been compromised by the Döckálfar, and goes to seek him out. Turns out, Viggo is not easy to get to and Svala learns that things are not always as they seem.

In the second part, Freja, a public display of Viggo and Svala’s most painful secret forces Svala to remember events from her past she would rather forget. Tormented by guilt, Viggo breaks the rules and tries to contact Svala, but his attempt leaves her with more questions than answers and Svala worries about Viggo’s relationship with his co-star Amanda Jones.

The third part of Nordic Fairies, Döckálfar, takes us back to World War II where we find out what happened to Viggo during the war, and how he met Amanda Jones. In present time, Svala receives unexpected information about Amanda and Viggo’s relationship, leaving her unsure about who she can trust.

In the fourth part of Nordic Fairies, we’ll go back to the 80’s when Svala and Viggo ends up in High School together with their long lost daughter, who is now Svala’s age.

For those of you who haven’t heard of Nordic Fairies before, you can go to Amazon or Barnes & Noble and get the first copy for free.

Thanks for reading!
