Synopsis: They said the Gods were myth. That the Giants were only stories told around dying fires. They lied.
The Gods aren’t dead—they’re only sleeping, locked in mortal bodies, scattered across the world, waiting for the right spark to wake them. And my father is the most ruthless of them all.
He raised me to obey. To bleed. To be his blade when the time came. Now he’s sending me to Endir University, a place filled with ancient bloodlines and deadly secrets, to steal back Mjolnir, the hammer of legend. If I fail, everyone I love dies.
But Aric Erikson wasn’t part of the plan. He’s the enemy’s heir. Distant. Dangerous. And…the one person I can’t afford to fall for. He’s closed himself off completely behind a wall of ice, but the more I’m ordered to unravel him, the harder it becomes to remember where the lies end and I begin.
There's only a mission I never chose—and a man I was never meant to love—standing between me and a war that will decide the fate of the world.
But if I’m the spark, maybe he’s the fuse. And the Gods? They’re about to wake up angry.

My Review:
I was so excited when I was finally able to pick this one up. I did it as an audiobook and then as a print copy and I have to say that neither of them worked out at all. I felt like this book was overdone with the political aspects of the story. Which really just bogged it all down. The past and present chapters also did not work in its favor and really just took me out of the story when it would switch back and forth. All of that contributed to this being just slow and unfortunately boring. And I had to just call it quits early on.
