When Hilda wakes up in the body of a troll, she must use her wits and courage to get back home, become human again and save the city of Trolberg.

Hilda and the Mountain King is the sixth book in the Hilda series of graphic novels, written and illustrated by Luke Pearson.

In Trolberg, Johanna has great trouble controlling Baba. When Tontu sees Baba, he concludes they are dealing with a change. Johanna, Baba and Tontu thus set out for the wilderness outside Trolberg to try and find Hilda. They search all day till it’s almost sunset, when they are found by Erik Ahlberg, the leader of the Safety Patrol. He tells Johanna that there are more trolls than ever in the area, and insists she goes back to Trolberg. He bells a petrified Troll.

That Troll is none other than Hilda. When the sun sets she awakens, and since she’s a troll now the ringing of the bell hurts her. She manages to get rid of the bell. Baba’s mom comes for her, but Hilda manages to elude her, and in doing so finds a huge cave with dozens of bells hanging from the ceiling of the entrance. Inside she finds a gigantic troll with no eyes, who calls himself Trundle. He tells Hilda that there is a way she can become human again, which he will show her if she helps him. He also assures her that Baba’s mom means no harm, since she considers Hilda her daughter now. Hilda reluctantly returns to Baba’s mom.
