Catan

Written by the award-winning creator of the global board game sensation, “Catan” is a new adventure perfect for old fans and new readers alike. Norway, 860. Half-brothers Thorolf, Yngvi, and Digur have conspired to help Asla-daughter of Halldor, a powerful Viking chieftain-to escape her father's oppressive rule. However, when they are discovered the chieftain's revenge is swift and mighty. Pillaging his way through the realms of his daughter's liberators, Halldor banishes his kin and has the brothers driven from their land. Left with no other choice, the three brothers-together with family and their allies-depart their home, sailing for new shores and, after a treacherous voyage, finally reach their destination: Catan, Land of the Sun. But new challenges await on this island, and new discoveries must be made if they are to survive. Will the brothers be able to stand together and offer a better future for all the settlers, or will this new mission divide them even more...

A prince, a secret society, a momentous decision-the call of the ravens rings out. From the award-winning creator of the global board game sensation, Catan: The Order of the Ravens picks up eighteen years later, continuing the riveting tale of family, love, and the bitter struggle for power. Returning to Catan, Island of the Sun, we find Thorolf ruling with an iron fist as unrest grows among the unfree. Forming the secret Order of the Ravens, they fight to reclaim their futures. When Jora, Thorolf's headstrong daughter, joins their cause, Thorolf must choose between his power and his family. Asla, Yvngi, and Digur face individual challenges, and as the communities on the island swell and change, their founders must change with them-or be left behind. Honoring the legacy of Klaus Teuber, Catan: The Order of the Ravens is a brilliant continuation of a captivating saga. "Klaus Teuber comes out swinging! The Order of the Ravens surpasses even the amazing first Catan book. Compelling characters, plenty of action, wonderful world-building, and a breakneck pace! Highly recommend!"
