Return of the Asgard

The Valkyrie Chronicles, Book 1

By: Erik Schubach

Narrated by: Hollie Jackson

The Valkyrie Kara stood alone against the Ragnarok horde on Earth to ensure that the Asgard race and Valhalla could escape. For 5,000 years she has fought and evaded the Ragnarok race on Earth, just waiting for her people to return. A human woman, Kate, joins her fight, showing as much conviction and valor as any Valkyrie. Their friendship quickly becomes something more as they hold the line on Earth in battle, to herald the return of the Asgard.

Awesome story!

Awesome story. Great strong characters. Fantastic reading by Hollie Jackson. excellent action, well paced and wonderfully told. Fantastic beginning to a great series.

Wow

very engaging, to thos day I still love this series. I've read the books several times ans the audio is just great.

to say sophomoric would be kind

I managed to get through the book. it had such potential the first chapter or so and then it just turned dreadful I am so sorry to say.
I love the concept but this book is overly simple cheesy and in parts just stupid. I guess I won't be listening to any more in this series of books sad to say.

Woohoo!!!! Beautifully imaginative!

Erik Shubach brings out the best in a character and does it with a dramatic flair! I loved this one and am grabbing the next in the series!

Brilliant Twist on an old Mythos

Schubach takes the classic Norse mythology and twists it. Instead of the gods of Valhalla we have an alien race. Instead of the Valkyrie and the Einherjar preparing for an event called Ragnarok, they are fighting other aliens called Ragnarok. In the story the ancient norse mythology was actually all started by Kara, the main character, when she got drunk and told the tales of her people to a group of vikings.

Though all the characters are a little larger than life, since they are super old and powerful aliens, they all still feel real. And Schubach adds plenty of humor into his books too that make the characters feel that much more real.

I absolutely loved this book and the series just gets better with each book. I highly recommend it.
