    Warriors, Gods, and page turning suspense
  

*by M***K on Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2024*

I really enjoyed this story. Adrienne Young created a lovely set of characters and a landscape that was new and refreshing. Warriors clashing in battle, sweet romances, waves of emotions and page turning suspense. I would 100% recommend this story. Once I got into it and the characters, I couldn't put it down!

    Action-packed and bloody right from the very beginning
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2019*

Sky in the Deep was one of those early 2018 releases that were raved and talked about a lot in the book community. Super hyped and had a lot of good reviews. Basically, it was one of my most anticipated books of 2018.The synopsis piqued my interest from the very beginning because I’m a sucker for all things Wonder Woman and a fan of the Vikings series. I’m always down for good a “betrayal” story and I couldn’t wait to find out why everyone enjoyed this book so much.Actioned-packed and bloody right from the very beginning, I was sucked in from the very first page. The novel starts off with Eelyn, our mc, preparing to go to war with the rival tribe the Riki. in the midst the battle she spots none other than her brother Iri- who died in the last battle 5 years ago- fighting alongside the Riki- something that shouldn’t even be possible because she saw him fall to his death with her own two eyes.I enjoyed Young’s writing in the first half of the book. Beautiful descriptions that made me felt as if I was there experiencing the same thing. I could sympathize with Eelyn. I actually sided with her actions and that made the novel felt even more real. I could connect with Eelyn and I commend Young for the excellent writing.Around the midway mark in the book, I started to grow tired of the novel. I wanted more action that the synopsis had promised and it was nowhere in sight. I started to get bored until I realized the novel was more character-driven than plot-driven and I started to enjoy it again. The plot showed up when I least expected and after it appeared the book moved so fast-paced that I didn’t want it to end but knew the inevitable was close.charactersAs I mentioned before the novel is mostly character-driven. I enjoyed Eelyn’s character. She’s headstrong, steadfast and intelligent. She knows what she wants and would do anything to get it. Even though Sky in the Deep is a standalone novel, she had a great amount of character growth. I loved seeing how she came to terms with her brother’s “betrayal” (which I wholeheartedly do see as a betrayal). I loved her interactions with the supporting characters, especially little Halvard.Fiske, the main love interest doesn’t talk much but I also enjoyed his character. When he isn’t threatening Eelyn, he’s saving her from herself and showing his familial love for Iri. He was a hard one to decipher but a good character nonetheless.Iri, the brother of Eelyn, I didn’t like so much. Even though I understood his actions, I just couldn’t agree with them. Imagine being alive all this time when you have could have let your family know. Not only did hide the fact that you were alive, but you also went to war against your former clansmen. Eelyn’s feelings were justified.Halvard, Fiske’s little brother (who is getting his own novel, I might add) was a bundle of sunshine. He made the hard parts of the novel easier to get through with his innocence and friendliness with Eelyn.  romanceAnd when he kissed me again, the seconds slowed. They stretched out and made more time. I felt his body against mine, unraveling everything else that was between us, and my soul unwound, threading itself to his. And I let it. I gave myself to him. Because I was already his.The romance was slow-paced with everybody’s favourite “enemies to friends to lovers” trope. I’m a sucker for mean on the outside but loveable softies on the inside kind of guys. Even though the novel was a standalone, the romance did not overshadow any part of the story. the romance was swoon-worthy and I wish there was more.  endingMy only gripe was the ending. The book speaks about the antagonist as legends and I feel like if they are legends the fight against them should have been more difficult. The ending felt rushed and anti-climactic that it sucked the enjoyment I had for the romance. The ending left me wanting more and I only hope that Young visits Eelyn and Fiske’s story again.Overall, I enjoyed the novel and can’t wait to visit this world again.

    Viking Warrior Women
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2018*

First of all. This cover. AND VIKING WARRIOR WOMEN. Just take all my money right now, why don’t you. Of course, there’s also a huge danger in being completely taken by a cover and brief blurb…sometimes the copywriter is a better writer than the actual author. So I was sort of kind of worried that might have happened, but I am very happy to report that it most certainly did not disappoint!FIRST OF ALL:Adrienne Young, can we pleeeeeeeease have a sequel where Eelyn and Fiske are a little older?? PLEASE??? Like maybe a NA type? Maybe where the enemy tribe resurges? I know there is a companion novel coming but it sounds like it might be more about someone else and I just need more of Eelyn. Please and thank you. Ok, now I will attempt to write something more coherent…there ARE some SMALL potential spoilers.Characters:Obviously, Eelyn. Our fierce Viking shieldmaiden. When the book first started, I was slightly put off by just how ANGRY she seemed to be, as if she had no other emotion (other than feeling pain, I definitely got the sense that she was in pain, but her reaction to pain was MORE ANGER). Did she have reason? Yes, probably more than most of us reading. Life in this time was hard, even if women were treated more equally in this Viking world. Eelyn kicks ass, but beneath her strong soldier exterior she still has a heart, she loves her family and her village more than life itself…which is why it hurts her so deeply when she discovers what her brother, Iri, has done. Eelyn is also NOT one of these heroine who walks and talks like a badass but never quite manages to DO anything badass…nope. She is downright brutal at one point in the book, and I found myself quite literally gaping at the page."I’d envied Iri my whole life for his open heart, and now mine had been pried open too."Iri himself is quite…well, I liked him, but I didn’t feel that close to him. I went through about the first half of the books with my arms figuratively crossed on my chest, TOTALLY with Eelyn that nothingbutnothing should have kept him from returning to his family, but then…then things happen. Still, I wanted to KNOW Iri better, because he really seemed like he was a complex character that we just didn’t get to know that well. Eelyn knows him, or thinks she does, and it is from her viewpoint that we see him.Fiske is something else. He really grew on me, because in the beginning I just thought he was a wuss. No joke. Then we see him interact not only with Eelyn and Iri, but his mother, his little brother…and oh wait, he’s not a wuss, he just thinks before he acts. I loved the slow-burn of his and Eelyn’s romance. I know enemies-to-lovers is one of the OLDEST romantic plots ever, but it’s repeated because it works, both in books and sometimes even in real life! I really wanted to see more of them as a couple, in the village and family dynamics…ah well. 2 flames, because while there are some couple scenes there’s nothing graphic or really all that descriptive.Inge, the only real mother-figure in the entire book (as Eelyn and Iri’s mother died long ago), is the best. I loved her so much. She is a healer, not a warrior, and yet she is very clearly just as strong as Eelyn or any of the others. I pretty much want to be her, since I’m pretty sure I don’t have the reflexes to be Eelyn.Halvard!! OMG, this little guy has more guts and spine than several adults put together. And he is so non-judgmental, sees the good in everyone…we all need a Halvard in our lives. I swear the moments when his life is in danger, I went all Mama Bear even just sitting on my couch. DON’T YOU DARE MESS WITH MY LITTLE MAN, YO. At one point I actually thought he was going to be killed off and when I finally got to the end of that passage, I realized I’d been sitting there with my free hand just plastered over my mouth and I had tears in my eyes. THE FEELS.PlotThe plot is pretty well encapsulated in the book blurb, making this story MUCH more character driven than action driven – despite having some really intense battle scenes in the first and last quarters of the book. The middle bit is really more about Eelyn and her internal struggles with being a captive, and of all the dynamics of the Riki village and Iri’s “new” people. It is heartbreaking, at times."The words were small but they were true. ‘I’m thinking that I wish you’d died that day.’"WorldbuildingThere isn’t a lot of detail given, which works quite well for this book. We know that the Aska live by the sea, and the Riki live in the mountains, and they have a generations old blood feud. Their culture is clearly based on ancient Vikings, but other than that…this was a book about people and relationships, not one to immerse you completely in a historically accurate time and place. It does immerse you, just…in a much more narrow way. It works much better than I could have imagined, and I was quite surprised that the lack of detail did not seem to hinder my enjoyment of the story at all.5/5 stars. Highly recommend. My only “complaint” is that I really wanted more, I was very disappointed when it ended…but isn’t that how the best books always are?"I could still see a young Eelyn standing on the beach turned into the wind, a sword in one hand and an axe in the other. I hadn’t lost her. I hadn’t buried her. I’d only let her change into something new."
