Review: 

This book was delightful! 

Every page had me laughing or at least grinning. It certainly wouldn’t win any literary awards for me, but I enjoyed it immensely. 

The entire journey was fun and hilarious with a mix of different mythologies that made the entire thing fascinating, loveable characters and a fast pace to keep everyone on their toes. 

Granted there are quite a few plot holes, and the main characters can be a bit… ‘too awesome’ at times and the writing can be a bit forced in places. But this is definitely going on my shelf as a reread for when I need a pick me up and I’m already ¾ of the way through the next book. 

Definitely recommend.
