Description
For fans of The Raven Boys and American Gods.
Following up on the cliffhanger ending of Book 1, where Anna has learned who is responsible for the series of bestial murders taking place in her hometown and learns that they are connected with an ancient prophecy about the end of the world.
Book 2 sets off with Anna reaching Hrafnheim, an unknown parallel world full of gods, demigods and creatures. There she is picked up by soldiers of the ruler Ragnara, but a renegade officer of the army, Rorik, frees her. Together, they set out to free her twin sister, Serén, who has been captured by Ragnara. The road to the capital of Sént is fraught with deadly dangers, and the vision of her own murder plagues Anna ceaselessly. She begins to understand more and more that Ragnarok, the downfall of the world, is directly linked to her own fate . . .

Kirkus Reviews
"A complex mythological adventure"
A girl’s prophecy-driven journey through the landscape of Norse mythology continues in this sequel to 2023’s Ansuz, translated from Danish.
Clairvoyant Anna’s giant wolf, Monster, reappears from the gods’ world on the verge of death, bearing a dire warning. The ruler of Hrafnheim, Ragnara, has captured Anna’s sister, Serén, and intends to capture Anna, too, because of the prophecy linking Anna’s blood to Ragnara’s downfall. Rather than wait for the danger to find her, Anna makes her way to Hrafnheim through an ill-fated deal, is captured upon her arrival, and escapes with a soldier named Rorik.
Anna embarks on an epic quest, experiences violent visions of death, and navigates an important case of mistaken identity to rescue Serén from her sacrificial fate before Ragnarök begins.
The expansive worldbuilding and intricate web of coinciding storylines are fairly smoothly plotted with few expository sections … Those interested in the myriad Norse mythological details woven throughout will be satisfied, and the glossary of people, places, and things is extremely helpful.
