Seven o'clock on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the end of the world, and goblins have been at the cellar again. Not that anyone would admit it was goblins. In Maddy Smith's world, order rules. Chaos, old gods, faeries, magic - all of these were supposedly vanquished centuries ago. But Maddy knows that a small bit of magic has survived. The "ruinmark" she was born with on her palm proves it - and makes the other villagers fearful and suspicious that she is a witch. But the mysterious traveler One-Eye sees Maddy's mark not as a defect, but a destiny. And Maddy will need every scrap that One-Eye can teach her about runes,…

It's been five hundred years since the end of the world and society has rebuilt itself anew. The old Norse gods are no longer revered. Their tales have been banned. Magic is outlawed, and a new religion - the Order - has taken its place. In a remote valley in the north, fourteen-year-old Maddy Smith is shunned for the ruinmark on her hand - a sign associated with the Bad Old Days. But what the villagers don't know is that Maddy has skills. According to One-Eye, the secretive Outlander who is Maddy's only real friend, her ruinmark - or runemark, as he calls it - is a sign of Chaos blood, magical powers and gods know what else... Now,…

Seven o'clock, on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the end of the world, and goblins had been at the cellar again... Maddy Smith was born with a rusty-coloured runemark on her hand - a symbol of the old gods and definitely cause for suspicion. For magic is dangerous. Or so everyone thinks. But Maddy enjoys working magic. Even if it is just to control some pesky goblins. And every time her friend, One-Eye - a good-for-nowt Outlander - comes by, he teaches her more and more about the gods and the runes. Now he wants Maddy to open Red Horse Hill and descend into World Below to retrieve a relic of the old gods. Otherwise it is…

Seven o’clock on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the End of the World, and goblins had been at the cellar again. Maddy Smith has always been an outsider. In a world ruled by the harsh and puritanical Order, she is shunned for the strange birthmark on her left hand. For this is no ordinary birthmark – it is a runemark, a sign of the old gods. In fact, Maddy can do things that no-one else can, things that could be called magic. But not until she meets the old traveller One-Eye, an outsider like herself, does she learn what power she really has, and what she will be asked to do with it. In Runemarks, Joanne Harris creates…

Мэдди Смит, рожденная с особой меткой на руке, всегда была чужой в своей родной деревне Мэлбри. Добрые люди в Мэлбри верят, что такая метка - "ведьмина руна", как ее здесь называют,- является символом старых богов, знаком магии. А это, как всем известно, прямиком ведет к хаосу и опасности! И конечно, теперь, через пятьсот лет после Конца Света, никто не хочет, чтобы мир снова погряз в волшебстве. Но Мэдди нравится творить чудеса. Ее лучший друг, таинственный чужак по прозвищу Одноглазый, с которым Мэдди встретилась несколько лет назад на холме Красной Лошади, объяснил девочке, что она отмечена знаком руны, и передал ей магические знания.…

In Maddy Smith's world, order rules. Chaos, old gods, fairies, goblins, magic, glamours - all of these were supposedly vanquished centuries ago.

Всё началось в Понедельник утром, около пятисот лет после конца света, когда в подвал в поисках выпивки опять забрались Гоблины, и кузнецова дочь Мадди опять была призвана на помощь. Не то чтобы кто-то в деревне верил в Гоблинов. Первозданный Хаос, Старые Боги, Гоблины, Феи, Волшебство и Чары были уничтожены много сот лет назад. Вот только очень подозрительными были странное родимое пятно, похожее на одну из рун Хаоса в ладошке у Мадди, и её полезная способность исправлять проблемы в погребах. Сторонились селяне меченой. И не пережила бы Мадди предопределённой её руной судьбы, если бы не пришёл однажды в деревню одноглазый странник.
