Publisher's summary

My name is Volrath, and I am an Aesir of Asgard.

I have no family name to speak of, but then I discovered I could tame, train, and breed the great dragons that are feared throughout Asgard. Now that I have this incredible power, it is my mission to scour the nine realms in search of more dragons to add to my menagerie.

I am joined by a beautiful Light Elf and a powerful half-Valkyrie sorceress, and these women want to bind themselves to me and bear my children.

This is the start of my legacy, and my journey to sit beside Odin and Freya as the greatest warrior mage Asgard has ever seen.

really good

Wish the MC was a touch smarter but honestly it's a really good book. His soul bonded women are top tier.

good story

I read the reviews and I dont personally care who Odins wife was or if the story fits past myths od Odin and asgard. bottom line is some warrior guy wants to help the dragons . good story ,very entertaining and good narration

Great new series for me!

I’ve always loved the mythology of the Norse. Logan did a great job integrating the mythology into the story. As always Jessica did a fantastic job! So did Christopher, I liked his narration in this book better than some of the other series he’s worked on. Definitely worth the purchase and listen!

pretty good

I'm actually pretty disappointed i didn't pick up this book much sooner. it was good.

forgotten plot points

I really liked this book but there are a few things that I just can't let go of. 1) the protagonist is an orphan and the author puts a lot of time into building the importance of lineages and houses but never shows examples of said houses, no designated part of the city for those recognized houses, important characters are said to be important because of their lineage but the name of those lines is never mentioned. 2) it is brought up multiple times from different people how Valkyries and light elves don't get along and one of the main characters even says that she'll explain why when she knows the protagonist better. well she gets to know him MUCH better but the light elf and Valkyrie conflict is never explained. 3) the protagonist is part of a military unit and disappears for weeks at a time without any blowback or consequences for being absent (he eventually gets a mission from people higher in command but still).

I dislike reviewers who b**ch with“INCORRECT”facts

This comment is in response to the Anonymous Reviewer, who complained that Logan Jacobs should do more research on Norse Mythology if he's going to use it in his stories. The Anonymous Reviewer said this because Logan Jacobs wrote that Odin's wife is Freya, which the Anonymous Reviewer said was incorrect, he then said that Freya wasn't Odin's wife, that Frigg is.

Well I wish there was a way for people to reply directly to a review, that way I'd know for sure most people who read the Anonymous Reviewer's post, would read my reply. Hopefully the 17 people who said the Anonymous Reviewer's post was helpful, didn't decide to not listen to this book based on his review cuz he is partially incorrect.

The Anonymous Reviewer is right that Frigg is Odin's wife in some versions of Norse Myths, but in a majority of the later Myths, that a time when the rivalry between the Aesir Pantheon and the Vanir Pantheon was getting to the point where full out war might erupt, in order to keep that from occuring Odin, as the leader of the Aesir, offered the leader of the Vanir, who was Freya, a way of keeping the two pantheons from going to war. That offer was to combine the two pantheons as one, but Freya's pride wouldn't let herself be subordinate to Odin. So instead Odin offered to marry Freya which would make them equals as well as merge the pantheons more completely. So Logan Jacobs was not wrong in writing Freya as Odin's wife & not Frigg cuz Odin Tossed the old hag aside for the younger & more beautiful goddess Freya. So maybe that Anonymous Reviewer should do better research before spouting incomplete facts.

P.S. Also in some versions of Norse Mythology, Frigg & Freya aren't two seperate goddesses, but two different incarnations of the same goddess.

P.P.S. At this time I haven't listened to this Audiobook yet. After I have listened to it I'll edit this sentence out & replace it with my review of the Audiobook instead.

Thrilling

I enjoy it very much and I can't wait for the next installment.if you like dragons and beautiful woman then read it yourself.

Pretty good

I enjoyed the Norse feel of the book. It was nice seeing the dragons portrayed as adorable little pets versus the usual violent creatures. the girls were amazing and am looking forward to seeing the progression of the story

where's the rest

I loved the accent use, the dramatic intonations. no boring droning voices. everything was almost perfect. need the next book around to see if it lasts... so, where's the beef?

Slow start but give it time

This story was a slow start much like Skulduggery but once you get past chap 4 or 5 it gets moving you and don’t want to stop. I have I hopes for this series. I hope to see some more interactions of some minor characters who seems to be regularly mentioned.
