The Legend of Stockholm Archipelago and the Sleeping King is an original folklore-inspired tale that reimagines the mythical origins of Stockholm and its surrounding archipelago.

Long before Stockholm became a city of islands, bridges and shining waters, the troll kingdom of Trollholm stood at the heart of the Baltic Sea, ruled by King Gamlir. But when the envious King Morkhav of the Kingdom of the Deep deceives Queen Aurora of the Northern Sky, a chain of events begins that threatens to erase Trollholm forever.

Blending fantasy, Nordic atmosphere and real places around Stockholm, the story invites readers to see the archipelago differently not simply as thousands of islands scattered across the Baltic, but as the silent guardians of a kingdom that once existed beyond the horizon.

The Legend of Stockholm Archipelago and the Sleeping King is created for visitors, families and readers who love folklore, mythology and stories that make real places feel a little more magical.

Författare

Maria Georgina Ratuiste

Georgina Falkendal was born in the Philippines and is now based in Stockholm, Sweden.
After making Sweden her home, she found herself drawn not only to Stockholm's beauty, but also to the deeper meaning of belonging to a place that was once unfamiliar.

That feeling became part of the inspiration behind The Legend of Stockholm Archipelago and the Sleeping King.
Georgina explores the meaning of home, belonging, sacrifice, and what we choose to leave behind for future generations. Her fascination with Stockholm's islands, waters, and history inspired her to imagine a new legend woven into the landscape itself.

For Georgina, writing this book is also a way of giving something back to the place she now calls home. At the heart of the story is a belief that when we choose to love a place, a person, or something greater than ourselves, that love can return to us in ways we never expected. She hopes her stories will encourage readers whether they were born in Stockholm, made it their home, or are simply visiting to see the city, not only as a beautiful destination, but as a place filled with wonder, mystery, and stories waiting to be discovered.

Through her writing, she hopes more people around the world will come to see Stockholm as a truly magical destination worth experiencing for themselves.
