YA
In this trilogy-ender, before she can stop Ragnarok, Valkyrie Mason Starling fights mythical creatures, finds her lost mother, and faces her evil father. She also struggles to tell Fennrys Wolf her feelings and guide him back from wildness. Jam-packed action sequences are broken up by drawn-out discussions of characters' histories, which may help readers understand the mix of random mythological figures.
