Publisher Description
"A masterfully crafted, brutally compelling Norse-inspired epic." —Anthony Ryan
THE GREATEST SAGAS ARE WRITTEN IN BLOOD.
A century has passed since the gods fought and drove themselves to extinction. Now only their bones remain, promising great power to those brave enough to seek them out.
As whispers of war echo across the land of Vigrid, fate follows in the footsteps of three warriors: a huntress on a dangerous quest, a noblewoman pursuing battle fame, and a thrall seeking vengeance among the mercenaries known as the Bloodsworn.
All three will shape the fate of the world as it once more falls under the shadow of the gods.
Set in a brand-new, Norse-inspired world, and packed with myth, magic, and vengeance, The Shadow of the Gods begins an epic new fantasy saga from bestselling author John Gwynne.

Good Norse Fantasy
First book reading with Norse mythology and fantasy. I enjoy the world building and character development. Even for me who does not read often I was able to follow and understand the story, even had chapters that made me excited to read on to know what happens with some characters.
Fantastic
Fantastic book, a real page-turner. Full of violence and intrigue. Onto the next one :)
Okay Book
This was an alright book. I haven’t read a lot of fantasy books like this but this book was slow. Most books I get to a point where I can’t put it down. I never got there with this book.
