Brandi is an assassin, trained to defend the queen. She also happens to be the human incarnation of the goddess Freya.  Her goddess demands she protect the vessel of one of the other gods and find the other two vessels so that as a group they can defeat the gods' enemy. 

The world building here is interesting. The gods and their relationship (reverse harem) was interesting. The map of the world with each god's land being so vastly different in terms of technology and terrain was fascinating. 

I enjoyed getting to know they characters as they went searching for the other vessels and solving the mysteries set before them. The ending left me wanting book two. 

It was fun read!
