Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros

Today’s review is about IRON FLAME by Rebecca Yarros. This is the second book in The Empyrean series, so naturally my review contains spoilers for the first book. I’m happy I finally read this sequel…it only took me almost a year to do so, mainly because I got irritated seeing it all over the place. I read it on my own time and happy I did so. Onward to the review!

Published on by Celeste10 Comments

Today’s review is about SHIELD MAIDEN by Sharon Emmerichs. It’s a retelling of the epic poem Beowulf during his 50th year of reign from the point of view of Fryda, his niece. This story has excellent disability representation and immerses the reader in 10th century Geatland (modern Sweden) culture.
