Quote: "I hoped whatever was growling was a herbivore."
But no such luck. Mia Ahlstrom is about to be sucked into her culture's folklore in an impossible way--sharing her house and her university experience with some of the more youthful Norse "gods"--and what's growling in the woods is Fenris Ulf, who is living in the woods in the custody of the war god Tyr, who can still pass for a student. Fenris bites, but Tyr and Elsa have healing powers. Mia will acquire some healing powers of her own if she can keep up with Tyr as boyfriend, Elsa as buddy, and a Valkyrie called Brynn as housemate.
She can, of course. What kind of story would this be if Mia, an ordinary math major at Redwood State University, weren't ready to hang out with a Valkyrie and a major Norse "god" any day?
I don't think this one is as good as C. Gockel's novels with similar material, but it's an amusing, mostly wholesome romance with plenty of "Scandiwegian" pride.
