This book really surprised me! It's been on my to-buy-list for a long time but I always hesitated. Then I saw it at Dollar Tree for only $1 and of course couldn't pass that up and man was I so glad I got it!

I normally don't really care for historical fiction, even with fantasy aspects but this one wasn't too bad! One of my favorite parts surprisingly was a lot of the cowboy stuff. I do't know why I found those parts so interesting but I did.

The characters were great even though i wanted to punt the little sister for over half the book. I felt they were all well developed and had their own distinct voices that worked really well.

I didn't know before I read this that essentially it was a standalone with a continuation that is more of a spin off so I was pleasantly surprised by the clean wrap up of everything! It made for a very satisfying ending that concluded well but left it open for more.

Overall a pretty fast and fun historical fiction with some fun norse mythology! I don't know when I'll get to the second one but I'm definitely interested!
