I had really, really high hopes for this book. I love vikings and when I found out I had viking ancestry I drove deeper into my love for them. So when I received this book in an Owlcrate box I was so excited. But now, after I finished reading, I don't know how I feel about this book.
In my opinion the book is very slow and it takes a while for the plot to pick up. I don't much care for character driven books and I found out early on, that Sky in the Deep in a character driven book.
Don't get me wrong I liked Eelyn as a character and I felt for her and all she had to go through. In fact I felt her reactions could have been more severe.
I felt the romance wasn't developed liked it could/should have been and was just, thrown in there just for the sake of it.
The ending was very quick and rushed in my opinion. The epic fight we get at the end felt like a 15 minute scene in a movie and then it was over.
Overall I enjoyed some aspects of the book but I had more problems with it than I was hoping.
