The Rot
The Rot | Siri Pettersen
3 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Book Two in Siri Pettersen's epic fantasy trilogy - The Raven Rings - at last comes to the U.S. after taking European audiences by storm. She has no identity. No family. No money. But the fate of the worlds rests in her hands. Hirka is stranded in a rotting world, with nothing but a raven and a notebook to connect her to the life she left behind in Ym. She came in search of her family, believing that she could protect Rime and the rest of Ym from the ancient evil of the blind. Instead, what Hirka finds in this new world are people willing to do anything for the blessing—or the curse—of eternal life. And for Rime, the threat of the blind is only growing stronger … Separated by worlds, unsure who to trust, and in danger from all sides, Hirka and Rime fight to end a thousand-year quest for power and revenge—and, maybe, to find a way back to each other. In this follow-up to the international bestseller Odin's Child, Norse-inspired mythology combines with modern-day action to create a work that is wholly original, endlessly surprising, and utterly unforgettable.

This is the second volume in a trilogy. Like most second volumes it‘s a bit hard to get into when you haven‘t read the first.

While I did love the first book, the second part was just... gruesome. At first, I liked it, too. But the more the story continued, the more I started to get annoyed with the characters. Especially with Hirka. All just moaning and complaining, while doing absolutely nothing to change anything. At some point I just wanted to throw her into the Thames. The end saved it a little, though. Now I'm continue reading anyway...
