Ulven og Uglen is a Danish publishing house specializing in fantasy literature for adults. We believe that fantasy is a diverse genre that should be considered serious literature on level with other genres and not merely as “children’s literature”.
Our ambition is to promote Danish fantasy for a mature audience and help authors turn their work into the best possible version of itself by providing professional editing and proofreading.
In our catalogue, you will find original Danish works of fantasy from Danish authors.

The Journey of the Swamp Baron
1st volume of the series Until the End of Aretz by Christina E. Ebbesen
In The Journey of the Swamp Baron, we meet the human Gavin, a baron desperate for money to protect his family and title, and the mysterious elf Ruby who is fleeing from his past. By coincidence Ruby ends up as Gavin’s squire in the tournament for the princess’ hand, but a partnership between human and elf is not looked well upon in the country of Karbon, where racism is widespread. As the two travel together, they must take on not only the challenges of the tournament but also the great disapproval of their growing friendship. Will the two be able to overcome prejudices and win the tournament, or will Ruby’s past catch up with him at the finish line?
The Journey of the Swamp Baron is the first volume in an epic fantasy series planned to hold six volumes in total. The series offer detailed worldbuilding with maps, calendars and magic-systems while handling major contemporary themes such as racism, sexism and queer-theory. Readers who enjoyed The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and The Stormlight Archive will also enjoy Until the End of Aretz.
