Welcome to Litsy!

Just when I quit seeking Viking vibes and was just enjoying what is woven into this story, I've begun encountering Viking elements.

This book now has everything I expected. The Indigenous POV, a Viking conquered world, the steampunk vibes, magic, and the Dragons.

The descriptions of the different kinds of Dragon breeds and what their strengths are... absolutely fascinating.

This Viking ruled world continues to feel more English than Nordic or Scottish?? Perhaps this rule comes from the Normans?? I'm enjoying this nonetheless 🐉📚💝. On Page 81

I appreciate what she did in writing this but so far I care very little about the actual story. I will push through a little longer on this simply because the writing is lovely and the audiobook narrator is great.

Based on the cover blurb I thought it would be in my wheelhouse and it is. I‘m looking forward to the other books written in this universe with these sleuths and their progeny in other historical times.

Volume four of the series took a while for me to get into, but we also first had to get our hands on Mars. But then it hit me again and I once again fell for Kowal's writing, her characters and her ability to create an alternative history sci-fi world that talks about all the problems our societies are facing today. How smart must that person be to do that?!

Audiobook—Litsy recommended (which now gets me into yet another series). This story has elements I love—Victorian England, great banter, feminist protagonist, paranormal characters including a hot werewolf, mystery, & romance. The narrator is wonderful with all the accents. My only issue is that I don‘t normally listen to steamy books & this has a few scenes. Still, the narration is so good that I‘ll continue the series on audio.

I'm so glad I took my own advice and got the Audiobook for the second installment of D.O.D.O
This felt like a totally different book from the first. All the characters I came to care for were either not there at all, or pushed aside so much that they became inconsequential.
I didn't like the new character, and it felt like we only ever travelled to one place - one I didn't care for.
And the ending was such a disappointment I can't even...
