This is a good example of a character driven story with bits of events to keep things moving at a good pace.

Rasmira lost everything she thought she knew in one brutal blow. Unfairly banished from her village and tasked with killing Peruxolo - a god, Rasmira sets out to do the impossible. While fierce and strong willed, Rasmira has warranted trust issues, but she must put those aside to forge new friendships, survive in the wild, kill the god, and earn her right to return home.

This viking inspired standalone has a little bit of everything - a story driven plot, family dynamics both good & bad, a betrayal very early in that will honestly cause you to do a double take (it literally slaps you in the face!), monsters, diversity, a reluctant, but sweet main romance, and enough action to swing an ax at!

While I personally enjoyed Tricia's Daughter of the Pirate King series better, this was still really enjoyable and will easily fit onto your YA Fantasy shelf!

I read Daughter of a Pirate Queen and Daughter of the Siren Queen by Tricia Levenseller and absolutely adored them. They were some of my favorite books of all time. I have had Warrior of the Wild on my TBR since the moment I saw it. So you can imagine my excitement when I received an ARC through Netgalley.

This book was awesome. It was full of excitement, action, slow burn, betrayal, and a female warrior. The pace was perfect for me. There were no long drawn out scenes. The major events had just enough build in between without making me long for it to just get to the point.

After finishing this book I am left feeling like a really good ride at a theme park.. (random I know..) It’s torture to stand in line for hours seemingly waiting forever just to ride a ride for what feels like seconds. I am anxiously awaiting the next book by this author and I am sure I will devour it in seconds too. Tricia is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors!!

I liked this book - it was cute! Yes, I said cute when describing a viking-warrior princess book but that is the feel I got from it!

I enjoyed this quick read and thought it had great character development. I LOVED Daughter of Pirate King series so I had super high expectations for this book. It kinda met those but kinda didn't. It wasn't AS good as the Daughter of the Pirate King BUT, it was GOOD on a whole different level. I loved Rasmina's strength, she is super hard headed and I totally get that. She really holds her self back and calms her temper in the "revenge department" and I respect that because I can't say that I would do the same. Her relationship with Iric and Soren makes me super happy - I loved watching it grow.

A good revenge book for sure!
