Epic doesn't even do it justice. Orka, you baaaad bitch! I love her so much. I feel like mothers can relate to her. Because yes, you can kill my husband but taking my kin??? Hell no, I would murder everyone until I find out where my son is too. Damn, I don't blame her. I know there are other povs (Elvar and varg) but Orka is in my top 2 of best fictional female characters.
