The third book in her Guardian Series, Norse Fire, centers around Raven, Loki’s daughter, and the Druids who capture her attention.
I waited to read this, after reading the first two in the series, and am a glad I did! I love mythology and Susan Lawrence has created a series that focuses on the many aspects that include different cultural Gods, Goddesses, so many amazing creatures and their interactions with the human race!
There is an intensity that you must be prepared for, and some components of the story that have strong emotional connections that include PTSD, violence, torture, and death, but they are balanced by the threads of love and loyalty that grow from the characters needing each other.
I really enjoyed this book in the series. Each book builds on the other and you really need to read all of them to appreciate the bigger picture and the relationship of the characters. Having said that I love Sean and Michael. And Raven too! The druids were two of my favorite characters since book 1, Celtic Fire. They are totally worthy of love regardless of their disbelief! If you enjoy mythology and romance then you will love this series. Author Lawrence brings all the emotional complexity together in telling this story. Seeing previous characters and new characters gives it a wonderful familiar feeling with the investment of the reader in the characters. This is one of the best mythology romance series I have read to date.
Norse Fire: The Guardian Series Book 3
To enjoy this book and the series to the fullest you need to read the first two books.
This series has a rich interwoven tapestry of characters, past events and scenarios, whilst talking about other characters. This is the 3rd instalment in this series. If you have Not read the first two books Celtic Fire and Norse Fire ( and the prequel Novella First Fire ) then STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING…. and go no further…
Norse Fire is focused around Norse mythology, for anyone who is a lover of mythology then This SERIES is the one to read…the names of the books indicate the mythological focus. The amount of research and back story that has gone in to these books, never mind the amount of originality and creativity…is mind bendingly awesome and I will admit I did nerd out on numerous occasions multiple times!!!
As with the other books, this book didn’t hold back on the action..its has a fantastic fast pace that grips the reader hard. I found it exceptionally hard not to be swept away and devour it all in one go, but I knew the good stuff was coming…and by good stuff I’m mean the heart breaking soul destroying turmoil…all the feels!!!!!
As with all S.Lawrence Books prepare yourself for some triggers…..AND THIS IS YOUR TRIGGER WARNING….these books are not light and fluffy, they are emotive and gritty.
Stories about perseverance of will and inner strength in the most dire of circumstances and situations. Oh yes there are happy endings but the characters have to work hard for them!!!
Ive had my ‘eye’ on Michael and Sean, Since we were first introduced to them and knew something ( or someone special ) was destined for them.
Michael and Sean, were not left off the hook, they are two sides of the same coin… both hiding their pain in plain sight with their gruff, rough, ‘we be the protectors’ tough exteriors, making them wonderfully tortured and self-sacrificing characters that was slowly being revealed to us in the past books.
I loved that even right till the end Sean fought the love he is so deserving of…. still didn’t believe himself worthy.
And THATS what I adore about S.Lawrence’s Writing.
She doesn’t sugar coat, because life isn’t like that. The trials and tortures we face as individuals shape and mould us as much as we fight against it.. to be true to ourselves and wear that protective brace face…..those boys are truly written ‘real, their self doubt their despair…I felt their pain and only someone truly truly gifted could have given and expressed that amount of emotion and the respect and reverence it deserved.
I cant and wont talk anymore about the story because #NOSPOILERS, no matter how much i try to be creative and sneaky, too much will be given away and I’m too preoccupied lamenting the fact I’ve gotta wait for the next instalment.
LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI LOKI!!!!!!!!!!
This is Book 3 in The Guardians series. Things are happening and it’s not going to be good. I can tell you one thing, the book sure was good. This book involves Raven, Michael and Sean. There’s all kinds of suspense in here. There’s also a lot of soul digging going on. The Druids come into an exciting new life and it is very unexpected. I really enjoy read this series and it just keeps getting better and better with each book.
This is the third book in S. Lawrence’s Guardian Series and definitely not one you could read without knowing what has happened in the previous books, but I will say they’re all worth the read. I am still amazed how the author weaves such a captivating story around the different myths and creates new characters as well as putting a spin on the mythical characters from long ago. Sean and Michael were always two of my favorite characters, but now I am so enamored in them. Their journey is one of love, although they don’t always feel they deserve the love they are given. I wish I could explain the turmoil, this book put me through at some points of the story, but I don’t want to give anything away. Just read it! It was wonderful, even with the emotional roller coaster.
