I ADORE this series. And I LOVED this one. The characters are awesome, I really, really enjoyed both Annika and David. I'm sad the book is over. Only one slight complaint: For the life of me, I don't understand why Kalla didn't kill Lorenzo a thousand times over. There had to have been opportunities before Olaf came along, and even so, she knew he was killing LOTS OF PEOPLE. There is just no justification for sitting by, to me. I ended up rather disliking her, actually, between this and her condescending attitude to Annika. And I have mixed feelings about her relationship with Paolo but I pretty much am not comfortable with it. So it was kind of disappointing to dislike Annika's sister, but interesting, too, to not have things be neat and tidy. - On a different note but also needing to be hidden by spoiler warnings; I completely loved the lesbian viking commune storyline! Oh my god, so good and unique and well-constructed and wonderful. Fascinating. (4.5 stars) ( )

Two and a half stars. The story itself was a little weird in terms of structure--the plot beats seemed off. But Annika and David are gentle, wonderful human beings and their relationship was refreshing. ( )

The main story was good, but there too much romance for my tastes. ( )

Fun steampunk romance. Didn't buy the protagonist. It was too contrived. It seemed like he existed only to drive the action through and it didn't work for me. Loved pretty much everything else, though. ( )

Before Annika had begun her journey, her mother had assured her that the people in the New World weren't all that different from the women in their village of Hannasvik.
