Really enjoyed the Nordic type Fantasy story. Didn't know what it would remind me of, but man was it good.

The protagonist is sure of herself, but that doesn't mean that everything goes her way. Her ideals and beliefs are threatened, and how she works through it...felt honest and true.

Also, the battle sequences were amazingly realized in my head as I read the scene. Each one was unique and true.

To live in a society like this...each day is a moment, and you really don't think too far into the future...for tomorrow you may be dead.

I'm so excited to see what comes next.

It was bad but it wasn’t terrible. I would’ve liked it to have been more viking-y, and the romance to have had a better beginning. It felt like the mc and the love interest kinda just suddenly fell in love without much context or background. There was fluff after that and I did enjoy seeing them together. As a whole, Sky in the Deep should have been written better and had more detail so we could better understand and enjoy the journey with the characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

For the most part, the heroine cried a lot in numerous chapters, and it captured the scene of overwhelming grief when it came to familial love. The novel is packed with action, from fighting to clan wars. The contrast of living in a war rife with emotions demonstrates how loved ones were taken away for making sacrifices based on their own principles and beliefs. It was easy to understand the world building throughout the plot, with its definitive descriptions. I thought it'd be lacking in character buildup and relationship dynamics, but it worked out well considering the novel was short-lived.
