Books with title Trolls

Caleb Lamond and his brother, Noels, live with their uncle Mars on a small farm outside the frontier city of Carnation. Mars is a retired captain of the colonial army; he led the legendary invasion of the valley that (mostly) purged it of trolls. Caleb and Noels lost their parents in that battle. At a faire in Carnation, the brothers watch a captive troll get humiliated in an electric elevator. Shaken by this sight, Noels starts off on isolated wanderings in the forests surrounding the farm. After several weeks alone, Caleb works up the courage to tag along with him. Beneath the trees, Caleb is forced to confront the truth about his family. He returns to his uncle's farm shaken and changed but unable to fully accept his new identity.

She has come all the way from Vancouver Island, Canada, to take care of the children while their parents are away, and right from the start Aunt Sally enchants them with tales of her childhood with their father.

The trolls had the power to change Aunt Sally's life forever, and their legacy may change the lives of the three present-day children as well.

The highly anticipated second book to the International Bestseller TROLL! Thousands of copies sold. Over a million pages read. Topped the YA fantasy & fairytale charts for months, hitting #1. FANTASTICAL & ADDICTING. At the age of sixteen, Abby is undergoing major household changes. Her mom is getting ready to remarry and her new step-brother is driving her insane. She is just trying to keep herself busy with school and her part-time job when a most deliciously handsome stranger moves to her little seaside town and won't leave her alone. New arrival Wilhelm is unlike any other student at Abby’s school. His emerald eyes and tattooed body don’t truly reveal what he really is: a creature emerged from thousands of miles underground, seeking revenge, treasure, and a key that once belonged to an old enemy – a key Abby wears suspended from a chain around her neck. Why she has it is a mystery that Wilhelm will need to solve, and fast, in order to defeat a powerful mortal adversary. As an attraction between Abby and Wilhelm develops, more creatures like Wilhelm are drawn from beneath the ground to Abby’s town; wreaking havoc as they offer Abby’s classmates the fulfillment of their deepest desires. Will Abby and her new family survive as a game of magical warfare is unleashed? Her ability to reverse Wilhelm’s bargain depends on it.
