**I received a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.This doesn’t affect my opinion on the book** And this has spoilers from the second book of the series, Kalifus Rising.

The God of Mischief is up to his tricks, and that’s what the book begins with. How Loki killed Baldur, the son of Odin and Frigga. And how that led to the imprisonment of Loki, his wife, Angerboda; and his children, Fenrir, Jormungand and Helva, and I’m sure I got some names wrong, but I’m lazy to go verify them. That is what the prologue is about.

And then we go straight to the more recent developments, which also involves Loki released from his underworld prison by Leo, and Odin’s death in the previous book and its consequences. Loki spreads the word to the fire giants and their leader (?) Surt about Odin’s death and now they are out to destroy Orkney. And it’s not just Surt, Frigga is about to destroy Orkney too if Sam fails to get back Odin in the given time. That is what this book revolves around.

That is what this book revolves around. Sam’s journey to bring back Odin, and oh, the ‘bad’ decisions he makes on the way. Keely and Leo’s journey to the frost giants to get allies and save the people from senseless war. And Howie, being the protector with this ridiculously amazing ideas.

Out of all the three books in the series, this one is my favourite. It was enjoyable and adventurous and it felt so good, seeing the characters grow and develop and find out who they really are.

This review is going to be short because I there isn’t a lot to talk about, I already talked about the world building and writing style in my reviews on the previous two books. I just wanted to tell you about the plot and how you should read this series if you are into Middle-Grade books and Mythology, especially Norse mythology.

And I especially love the ending, the ending to the series. It was sweet and did actually bring me to tears and I can’t stress enough about how you guys should read the series.

and the cover, it’s beautiful.Yes, I earlier though the cover of Kalifus Rising was the best, but now I’m having second thoughts cause I love the cover of this too.

This might have turned out more of not-really-concise lines than a review, but I just completed the book yesterday and I just want to talk about the plot and the characters, but I don’t want to spoil you guys either.So, I’ll leave this here.
