Valkyries have one great responsibility: to return immortals to the afterlife by slaying them. As a Valkyrie, Malin has always known that the balance of the world rests on her ability to carry out orders. But when Malin discovers that her mother spared the life of an immortal who was destined to die, her world is thrown into chaos.

Malin not only wrestles with the knowledge that her mother might not be who she thought—she’s also thrust into the path of a gorgeous blue eyed guy named Asher who needs her help slaying the rogue immortal who destroyed his family. The balance of the world is at stake. And, as Asher competes with Malin’s ex for her love and loyalty, so is her heart.

My Thoughts

I read Amanda Hocking’s Trylle series years and years ago. It wasn’t the greatest series in the world, but it was interesting. I’m hoping this new series provides the same type of fun. Maybe it’ll be similar to Jennifer Estep’s Mythos Academy series.
