I loved this book so much this author never disappoints I love her writing and characters so much looking forward to whatever she writes next. I loved the characters so much especially Liv and Calder they fit well together had a connection pretty early on. What I loved about Liv was one her strength both of body and character her willingness to do what she has to to protect the people she cares for after so much was taken from her. I loved Calder for his understanding how he treats Liv would do anything so that she would live. There are other great characters like Armund Calder's Father a wise and strong man who gives back just a little of what Liv is missing. I loved the plot a great Viking story of loss and vengeance as well as a romance for the ages it starts with Hodor having vision telling his family with only Liv believing him things play out like the vision and Liv loses everything and gets the help of a Norn to survive and get her vengeance so she sets out to kill the one who massacred her family meets a great love and a new family and finally those she loves is avenged and she now has her whole life ahead of her.
