Valkyrie Landing (YA Fantasy Romance)

Valkyrie Allegiance, Book 1

De: A.J. Flowers

Narrado por: Raquel Beattie

Welcome to Valkyrie High School.... Time to Reap My First Soul.

The first law of the Valkyrie is "Don't fall in love." I messed that one up...big time. I failed my sisters and fell in love with William Johnson. I've watched him for three lifetimes and a little piece of me broke every time I had to let him die.

I paid the price for breaking the first law of the Valkyrie. I lost all the memories I had of Will. That's why Sam is keeping tabs on me. She's an ever-present shadow during my time at Mattsfield High. Sam is the perfect Valkyrie. Tall. Beautiful. Heartless.

I may not remember Will, but my heart does. If Freya thinks I’m going to be a good little Valkyrie this time around...she’s wrong.

Valkyrie Landing is the first in the highly-acclaimed series Valkyrie Allegiance. Ideal for listeners of strong heroines, urban fantasy themes, and a heavy dose of Norse Mythology (as well as a spaceship or two). You'll be blown away by this character-driven trilogy that'll take you all the way to Ragnarok, so hang on tight!

This is a complete series scheduled for rapid release, so be sure to follow the author and claim your copy!

good listen

I've never read a story where the valkyrie were the main species so I was very intrigued from the beginning on the norse mythology references. There is a girl who is the love child of Freya and Odin, and thus more unique/special then her other valkyrie sisters. Shes got a hot warrior best friend (who is my favorite character in the series) and a sister who attempt to help Val rescue a soul. The soul is actually a previous love of Val's and they kind of know but dont really remember each other because their memories were wiped. I think there is a vague love triangle of sorts but it never actually develops that far yet. Personally I am team Ty! The guy Val falls for isn't written with any personality so its hard to like him. I can see this definitely becoming a plot in the next book.

We still don't know too much about the world of the supernatural as most of this story takes place on earth. There seems to be a war brewing though so I hope we get more insight to the homeland places. I think there are alot of things yet to play out and cant wait to see where this story goes.

wow

this book was so good. the drama the betrayal and the lost love she had between two men. who will she pick and will she help one of her lover. I so would recommend this book to family and friends.

So Much Fun!

Valerie has a lot to figure out. She’s a Valkyrie, but she can’t remember her past life. All that she knows is that she is supposed to find out the secret of a human boy named Will.
Unfortunately, nothing is that simple.
Can Val stick to her morals, even when the fate of the universe lies in the balance?
This story falls in the realm of fantasy, science fiction, romance, and adventure in a fun, edge of your seat tale.

Good listen

This was a good book, definitely not what I was expecting. Interested in seeing more of this world.

An interesting Norse spin but not for everyone

An interesting spin on Norse mythology but just wasn't for me. I was drawn to this book because of my love for mythology books and wanting to try more of Norse influence. I liked the general story plot but struggled to really connect with it. While it does afterexplain, it requires some familiarity with Norse figures and events. I spent the first half trying to decipher who was what but eventually fell into a rhythm. The characters were each given unique personalities but their actions were a bit repetitive, stalling the story. While the ending was exciting, I didn't feel much was accomplished from beginning to end. The narrator captures teenagers well and gave each character an individual and well-suited sound. By the second half, I enjoyed being able to identify who was speaking by their "voice" without waiting to be told by the story. Although it wasn't quite for me, I think readers interested in Norse mythology and a clean YA book would enjoy this.
