Description
Until this moment, Bára thought that only hobbits lived in the grassy houses. Thanks to an atlas, she discovered that Icelanders lived like that in the past as well. While a thirty-year war rages in Europe, the inhabitants of a small island off the coast of Iceland have other concerns – to catch plenty of fish and gather enough eggs from the steep cliffs of wild birds to have anything to eat at all. Both activities are a matter of life and death. Fishermen can easily be caught off guard by an unexpected storm on the open sea, and when gathering eggs, a small mistake can lead to a fall from over a hundred meters into the wild surf... However, the Icelanders consider this to be such a "daily norm." But one day, pirates appear on the horizon...
