"Norse Gods causing havoc in modern day San Francisco is awesome"

Fresh Fiction Review

Black Ice

Science Fiction | Fantasy

Mist always believed she was a Valkyrie so discovering she is the daughter of Freya and a powerful God herself has caused her many problems. Mist, her elf friend Danni and others have been trying hard to find all the other Valkyries and the treasures they possess to stop Loki from taking over earth. Loki has plans for the planet and they are not ones humans will enjoy. While Loki tries to gather an army from the void, Mist is trying to build one on earth. People begin to join Mist sensing that a battle for earth may be coming soon. Both Mist and Loki search for the other missing Valkyrie, but little does Mist know she has a traitor among her group. BLACK ICE is an exciting concept bringing the Norse Gods to San Francisco. BLACK ICE is a action packed unban fantasy. As you delve into the story and live past and present lives of the characters you are drawn into their pain. It is written in a way that you understand what they are doing and why even if you don't always agree with them. Mist is so driven to save humanity and Loki is only driven by his selfish greed as is Freya. There is no doubt that you will root for them to win in the second book of the series, Midgard. Though BLACK ICE is the second book it can be read as a standalone, but you might enjoy getting more background by reading the first. There should be many more great stories to come in the series by Susan Kinard.

SUMMARY

New York Times bestselling author Susan Krinard continues the thrilling urban fantasy series that began with Mist in Black Ice. Centuries ago, all was lost in the Last Battle when the Norse gods and goddesses went to war. The elves, the giants, and the gods and goddesses themselves were all destroyed, leaving the Valkyrie known as Mist one of the only survivors. Or so she thought. The trickster god Loki has reappeared in San Francisco, and he has big plans for modern-day Earth. With few allies and fewer resources—but the eyes of the gods and goddesses of an old world upon her—it’s up to Mist to stop him before history repeats itself.
