One Norse fantasy novel related to such a concept could be 'The Sea of Trolls' itself by Nancy Farmer. It's a great read that delves into the Norse mythology with trolls and adventures on the sea.
Another important theme is the connection to Norse mythology. These novels draw on the rich tapestry of Norse beliefs. The trolls are part of this ancient mythology, and their presence in the sea might be related to the gods or other supernatural elements. For instance, there could be a prophecy that links the sea of trolls to the end of the world in Norse mythology, and the characters are trying to prevent this from happening. This theme gives the story a deeper cultural and historical context, making it more than just a simple adventure story.
😋I recommend the following Norse mythology novels to you: [The All-Devouring Dragon: This book tells the story of a monster's search for the truth. It covers many myths and legends.] "Don't Be a Spearman": This book was set in the Norse Mythology world and described how the protagonist evolved his martial soul into the Odin Spear of Norse Mythology. "Undead Lord of the Frost Remains": A story of a mixed-race race who traveled to the Norse Mythological World to search for the truth and eliminate evil gods. "Evil God's Smile" was a story about Loki, the most troublesome god in Norse mythology. The story contained many mythological elements. [Valhalla: The story of how a swordsman built his reputation on the Sword Hill of Ullr Sky City, resounding throughout Valhalla.] I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗

Another great one could be 'Eirik the Red and Other Icelandic Sagas'.

Another great option could be 'The Long Ships' by Frans G. Bengtsson. While not strictly centered around runemarks, it delves deep into the Norse world.

Well, 'The Raft' by Stephen King also has some elements related to the horror of the sea. Although it's not entirely focused on the deep sea, the sense of isolation and the threat from the unknown in the water is very much in line with the horror of the drowning deep sea concept.
Another way to find relevant novels is to look into the works of Japanese authors who are known for writing about nature and the relationship between humans and their environment. For example, some works by Yasunari Kawabata might have elements that could be related to the idea of a 'Black Sea of Trees', as he often explored the beauty and melancholy of nature in his writing.
