Review:

This book is based around Norse mythology and set in a hotel which means that you could have the grandest hotel ever but still have a set scale of how big something could ever feel and yet this book feels epic in scale despite being in a hotel.  The book is a beautiful read which has epic scale, dark feeling moments and descriptions of the surroundings that enable the reader to be drawn in.  For a book which is setting up a world which is giant in what it could deliver, you always worry that it will result in either a watering down of the book you are reading or even that it feels a bit drawn out and for me this book manages to avoid both of these problems.

The book delivers on mythology, characters who you believe in and also a story which works well and delivers something that whilst epic for book one, could simply expand beyond anything you could picture if this series continues along like this.
