Thank you to BookSirens and Brigids Gate Press for providing a review copy.
The fantastic cover is what really drew me to this book. When I saw many of the stories are based on Icelandic legends, I was all the way in. The stories not based on myth are excellent as well, with a couple posing questions I had never really thought about. This was my first experience with Villimey Mist, and I am highly impressed. I definitely plan on checking out her other books.
