Drawing upon his Cree and Scandinavian roots, Harold R. Johnson merges
myth, fantasy, and history in this epic saga of exploration and
adventure.
While sorting through the possessions of his recently deceased
neighbour, Harold Johnson discovers an old, handwritten manuscript
containing epic stories composed in an obscure Swedish dialect.
Together, they form The Björkan Sagas.
The first saga tells of three Björkans, led by Juha the storyteller, who
set out from their valley to discover what lies beyond its borders.
Their quest brings them into contact with the devious story-trader
Anthony de Marchand, a group of gun-toting aliens in search of Heaven,
and an ethereal Medicine Woman named Lilly. In the second saga, Juha is
called upon to protect his people from invaders bent on stealing the
secrets contained within the valley's sacred trees. The third saga
chronicles the journey of Lilly as she travels across the universe to
bring aid to Juha and the Björkans, who face their deadliest enemy yet.
The Björkan Sagas is a bold, innovative fusion of narrative traditions
set in an enchanted world of heroic storytellers, shrieking Valkyries,
and fire-breathing dragons.
