Tome Thursday: The Silent Son

 
Hello everyone!
 
Time to dive into Norse lore again tonight.
 
It feels like I've planned this, reading so many books lately that take inspiration or are directly linked to our northern neighbours somehow, but I promise that's not the case.
 
I actually didn't even figure it out until I already had the books and was reading through them.
 
But it's definitely obvious I have a bit of a type, right?
 
All these books happen to be retellings, and this one tonight is no different either.
 
Remember that bit about the world ending, and each religion in the world having its own version?
 
Well, the Norse have one, too.
 
And Alexis L. Menard chose to interpret it her own way in her duology of books under the title The Last Daughter.
 
So come with us while we try to fight it off, in The Silent Son.
