A review by raefoth
The Children of Gods and Fighting Men by Shauna Lawless

dark mysterious reflective slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Loveable characters? Yes

4.5

This weaves historical fiction and fantasy in such a rich and beautiful way. This is for my mythology lovers, Viking history aficionados, and fantasy enjoyers alike. You should read this if you also want to read about strong complex female characters (hello murderous mommy Gormflaith). Very heavy on the history and a slower read, but am still very excited to read the rest of series after this strong setup.
