I downloaded a bunch of free books from the Baen library, and I don't think a single one of them was any good, at least for my taste.
This one was--I don't know, maybe it's meant to be a middle-grade book, in which case some of the behaviour might make sense? But for an adult, it was just stupid. The...

The sad thing is their are some really cool ideas like the idea that Odin is a villain and that it looks at the monsters as more of as tragic characters instead of as villains like they usually are.

Greetings one and all! After reading "Rats, Bats and Vats" (RBV) and "The Rats, the Bats and the Ugly" (RBU), I thought I would try Dave Freer's first novel. I'm very happy I did. It starts off on three different paths that eventually meet up and that's when things really take off.
