Drowned Ammet: A Fantasy Adventure About a Boy and Two Children Escaping Tyranny and the Mysterious Power of Folk Figures (Dalemark Quartet Book 2)

The people of Holand in South Dalemark are bitterly oppressed by the tyrannical earl Hadd. Informers, secret police, and cruel rent-collectors terrorize the countryside, and Mitt has grown up with more than enough reasons for joining the freedom fighters.

When his protest against the tyrannical government fails, a young boy escapes, with two other children, to the mysterious Holy Islands where they learn the identity and the power of two folk figures celebrated by their countrymen.
