The first book in the series, The Outcasts, introduces us to the main character Hal Mikkelson, a 16-year-old boy who is an outcast among his peers. Hal is the son of a Skandian warrior and an Araluen princess, making him different from the other boys in his village. He is small in stature and does not fit in with the typical Skandian warrior image of tall, muscular men. However, Hal is intelligent, resourceful, and has a natural talent for sailing, which he uses to his advantage. The story begins with Hal being chosen as the leader of a Brotherband made up of other misfits and outcasts like himself. Together, they must compete in a series of challenges against other Brotherbands to prove their worth and earn the title of the best Brotherband. Along the way, they encounter dangerous enemies and face daunting obstacles, but they never give up. In the second book of the series, The Invaders, Hal and his Brotherband are faced with a new challenge as they defend their village against invaders from a neighbouring country. The story delves deeper into the history and politics of Skandia, giving readers a more comprehensive understanding of the world in which the characters live.
