Author

A really fun Norse fantasy novel and the second in the Spear of the Gods trilogy. Unlike many of the other Norse fantasy novels that have been released in recent years, this one isn’t a super somber spiral down into the grim dark pit of despair, but rather more of a traditional action-adventure full of wisecracks and hijinks that incorporates a sturdy foundation of Norse mythology into its Scandi-cosmos. The influence of Neil Price’s research is present, and hints of Beowulf, Hrolf Kraki, and (especially) Arrow Odd are all there as well. A blast and highly recommended, especially to readers…
