threw my book every time it was that man’s chapter

I was pretty engaged at the beginning of this book. I liked the characters, and I was looking forward to seeing where the story was going.

Then all the battles started. So many battles. So. MANY. By the end I was battle-weary.

But it's a good story, mostly. I just don't have the battle tolerance that some of the higher-rating reviewers do, I guess.

An absolute masterpiece. Not a thing would I change. I’m completely obsessed. I don’t even know where to start. The characters, the world, the plot, the action - all completely and masterfully done. I was on the edge of my seat for every battle scene, of which there are many. I cheered. I cried. And at the end of it all I’m heartbroken but still hopeful…This series is amazing and should be an instant classic for every fantasy reader.

Spert and Vasli were the true hero’s as ever. I just love these ugly little vasen - I like that John Gwynne took an aspect of Norse myth and actually made characters from them rather than just mindless evil things. I am so so so thankful to johngwynne author and orbit uk for giving me an opportunity to read this amazing book early !
As with the first book my favourite POV was Orkas - I love finally having a main character than wasn’t in their teens or early twenties, it’s so refreshing having some time learned experiences used in a plot.
The Bloodsworn are the cutest found family trope and no one can change my mind - Einar especially is a freaking dorable.

This book definitely twists and turns, and I found the map super useful as we were jumping back and forth along it. Nearly all the POVs were travelling, sometimes overlapping places too so it took me a bit to figure out exactly who was going where.  Also if I hear one more person shrug to settle their mail imma scream - honestly it’s a great drinking game.

I also really appreciated how Gwynne used actual science in his creatures ! I don’t want to write too much as I’ll spoil things but I’m going to definitely be doing a spoilers post come the release day !

Overall 4 amazing stars and a bazillion for Spert and Vasli
