"A satisfying and riveting read. The well-realized characters move against a backdrop of a world stunning in its immensity. It's everything I've come to expect from a John Gwynne book."
--Robin Hobb on The Shadow of the Gods"The world is wonderfully rendered with attention paid to what makes the Norse sagas entertaining....The many layers provide a lavish feast for any reader. A great companion to Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology."
--Booklist on The Shadow of the Gods (starred review)"A masterfully crafted, brutally compelling Norse-inspired epic."
--Anthony Ryan on The Shadow of the Gods"There is not a dull chapter in this fantasy epic. As tension mounts with each passing page, Gwynne delivers exhilarating fights and gruesome battles with such vivid prose the choreography jumps off the page."
--Vulture on The Shadow of the Gods (Best of the Year)
