The mythology was interesting (I’m fairly ignorant of much Norse mythology) but the writing left something to be desired. Characters flat and story was mostly slow and dull (lots of cave time).

This is definitely a book for Madeline Miller fans. What she did for Circe, Gornichec accomplishes for the Norse giantess and witch, Angrboda. Often remembered only as the mother of Loki’s three infamous children, Gornichec breathes new life into her story, transforming her into a complex character of fierce warrior, devoted mother, and passionate lover. In this sweeping tale of love, loss, and destiny, Angrboda emerges as a complex and compelling figure who is fully intertwined with Norse mythology.
