This was a fun book that teaches you a lot about Norse mythology! I think Sam’s double life and the sword talking were a little much, but overall a great quest and voyage story. I’m excited to see where this story is headed, but I wish it was its own world and not connected to Percy Jackson via Annabeth (and a random Jason Grace reference). It also was low key (or Loki haha) was giving Wizards of Oz vibes at the end with Odin. I think I would almost give this book 4.5 stars.
