Sigbjørn Mostue

Sigbjørn Mostue is a norwegian editor and author of children's books. His literary debut was in 2005, when the first book in the trilogy of Alvetegnet (which would be something like "The Sign of the Elves" in English) was published. The two following books in the series came in 2006 and 2007. These books are written in some sort of magical realism, where the story take place both in the "real world" and a parallel, fairytale-like world on "the other side", populated by magical creatures. Many of these figures can also be found in norwegian folklore.

His books are popular among norwegian children and teenagers, but have not yet been translated to English. In 2006, the movie rights of Alvetegnet were sold to SF Norway.
