A review by velsbooknook
Song of the Shieldmaiden by Ashley Hagood

3.75

What a great way to end my reading year! This is the first book in the Daughters of Valhalla series and as the name says it's focused on the female part of the norse inspired world the author created. 
After a usurper takes the throne of their family, three sisters have to navigate their new life under a new leader, which of course comes with a lot of problems. 
I enjoyed the three sisters and the world. If you're familiar with norse mythology or have watched 'Vikings' it was very easy to get into the story and you will find similarities to other norse inspired worlds. 
You also get some romance which is done very well in my opinion. There is angst and struggles and I'm excited to continue the series and I can't wait to see what the author has planned for the sisters.
