When magic and magical creatures are revealed to the world, giant Lord Bjorn Larsen's betrothed breaks off their engagement in favor of a more appropriate
human
suitor. In a fit of rage, the giant removes his heart from his body to become more powerful and unfeeling, like the giants of legend.
Prince Filip Magnusson finds himself in a pinch. His six older brothers went missing after leaving him behind to attend a ball, and now, he's in line to inherit the throne. Determined to save himself from taking a leadership role, he runs away to try and free his brothers, save the princess, and slay the giant scourge terrorizing the countryside. In order to win, he'll need to be a little Heartless.
Heartless is a modernized retelling of
The Giant Who Had No Heart in His Body
with a dark fantasy twist.
