The beginning is extremely slow and a lot of it felt like you could shorten the length a bit. The really interesting parts happen at the end and despite being the main character I didn't really feel a connection to Omat or sad at any death in the book. The way Norse and Inuit mythology was woven together felt really thought out and I enjoyed it immensely. Overall I enjoyed this book despite it's flaws, it's 5 in the morning and this is the best review I can write right now, goodnight.
