Magical vikings! That's a fun new Romantasy subgenre for me. I enjoyed the magical system of this book, with the characters granted powers through a drop of divine blood. 

Freya is an enjoyable heroine, although she does suffer from some of the usual frustrating plot conventions, like failing to realize the male lead is in love with her when it's obvious to everyone else. I like her dark side.

There were a couple other plot points that were meant to be a big reveal but were pretty obvious, but it didn't detract from my enjoyment. 

Not sure I'll read the rest of the series but this was a fun listen.
