    Self-published Author Appreciation Week: Why you Need to Read Children by Bjørn Larssen

    July 23, 2021 /

    Norse fiction has become incredibly popular with the skyrocketing popularity of programs like Vikings and the marvel universe.  It interests me with its snapshot into history, the way they lived, their culture and most importantly, smashing stereotypes that have long been held as gospel.  Learning about the Nine Worlds, Ragnarök – the end of the world, their theory on how the world was created, the mind-blowing idea of Valhalla (which by the way, sounds way more appealing than a heaven vs hell scenario) and the tree of life – Yggdrasil.  Life was steeped in these beliefs; the Norse were incredibly family orientated and were not these brutal and barbaric invaders…

    Winter’s Fury by A.E. Rayne | Review

    November 27, 2020 /

    Winter’s Fury…yet another Norse inspired novel that has indeed broken me.  An ending that only has you downloading book two and screaming into the void!  An ending that will only have you yelling the authors name, but without A.E. Rayne’s dastardly writing skills, there would be no Winter’s Fury.  It’s taken me a few days to write this review because I have been on a book hungover, adrenaline intoxicated state.  This is the second Norse -inspired book that I’ve read in under a week and I seriously think I’ve found my fantasy sub-genre niche.  Let’s take a small walk and allow me to show you just why I ended up…

    Northern Wrath by Thilde Kold Holdt | Review

    November 22, 2020 /

    Northern Wrath was a book from the gods themselves.  Revenge is deadly, the swish of a blade, a whispered promise.  This review is going to be exceedingly hard to write, and I hope I can deliver it the justice it deserves.  Fantasy should catapult you into another dimension and Northern Wrath achieved that within just a few pages.  Thilde Kold Holdt had me all in.  The prologue hit like a steam train…I could smell smoke and danger and I was looking over my shoulder at the threatening shadow that promised to become known.  My senses was a frenetic buzz of energy and I was totally here for it. Northern Wrath…

    Children by Bjørn Larssen | Blog Tour

    October 6, 2020 /

    Children by Bjørn Larssen is one of those truly once in a lifetime reads.  Whilst reading it felt like all the stars had aligned, every wish I ever had come true, it was the jackpot lottery win.  It has everything.  The striking colour and magic that it promises within, decadent characterisation and prose that is as majestic as a sunset.  This was a blog tour that I couldn’t pass up on matter how snowed under I was writing reviews (you’d think I’d learn).  This is what Norse fiction should be all about and Bjørn Larssen is a master craftsman in it’s art. The word Children instantly brings images into the…
