I liked a lot about this, the sisterhood, the alternative look at Nordic history and the fantasy elements. I just found that the characters were never very likable, so I had a hard time rooting for any of them. The plot kept me interested though, so I still recommend if you like historical fantasy, and especially if you are a plot driven reader. 3⭐️

I didn‘t enjoy it as much as the author‘s first novel, but it was nevertheless an enjoyable book.

I loved this book. It's about these three girls who make a blood oath to each other after a prophecy binds them together at a feast. Set in Viking Norway, it explores the bond and length women will go through to save each other.
I gave it 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This book is set 950-ish CE in what is now Norway and thereabouts. I‘d call this more “historical fantasy” than “historical fiction.” There are some characters that are modeled after historical figures and others that are completely fictional. The author‘s note at the end gets into that and points to additional reading on her website. I found this thoroughly engaging and had a hard time putting it down.

Anna40 Ohhh! This sounds right up my alley! Looking for fiction/fantasy set in Middle Ages! Great review 12mo

This was a thoroughly engaging read based on Icelandic sagas. Gornichec gives us a historical fantasy that checks all the boxes: childhood friends growing up under a curse, check; witchcraft and shape shifting, check; power struggles, check; women seeking and finding non traditional roles, check; some men acting as oppressors and some as helpmates, check. My only criticism is that the author ties up the story in a trite bow. Sequel? Hope so.

About 9 chapters in and this book is amazing! It‘s such a gripping story, highlighting the indomitable spirit of these bad ass women! Cannot put it down…send help lol.

I kind of went back and forth in my opinion. There is a lot of action within the pages and Gornichec wrote these sections so well, but then there were large chunks of the story that seemed to drag. The characters are wonderfully written; it was easy to understand the relationship the girls had as children and what it became as they got older and as they faced their intertwined fates. The myth and magic pulled me in and the characters made me stay.

The author called this historical fantasy. 3 girls with entwined destinies embark on an epic adventure to save one of them. Taken from Icelandic sagas, one may have been an actual person. I enjoyed this a whole lot but I also really liked her other book.
