This book had such a complex plot for being in the middle of a trilogy, but it was because so much was going on. I absolutely loved it, the first book set it up perfectly.

Unsure of what's happening with Biórr, but it's very intriguing. 
Guðvarr does deserve his own perspective, but that's only my opinion because I severel  dislike him.

The ending absolutely destroyed me and I need the second book ASAP!!!!
