I borrowed the ebook of Hammered from my library, and I didn't finish the ebook. The book has quite a bit of Norse mythology and I was struggling with trying to pronounce those names in my head and keep everything straight. I switched to the audio version and it was easier for me to follow, I think this was mostly because I have watched all the Thor-related Marvel movies and was familiar with how various characters' names sound in contrast to knowing the spellings.
This is the third book in the series and it looks like things will be changing from here, we will be moving away from Tempe, Arizona. This book takes place in Asgard for the most part, which was interesting. Lots of action and we don't really know if Atticus has really messed up by going after Thor, or if things will work out. We do find out exactly what Jesus would do in Atticus's shoes, which is a fun scene in the book.
The best part of this book for me is when Atticus is spending time camping out with his brothers-in-arms and we learn the back stories behind why this group of desperate supernatural beings want to kill Thor.
This book is very male-centric and I would really like more Granuaile in these books, but I think maybe that isn't to be?
I read this book for Anne's Read-Along you can check it out here and consider joining us!

I think this one was hard for people because there was less humor without Oberon and the widow. But this is very UF with a character crisis and those campfire stories. I loved the campfire stories. I don't know enough about Norse mythology. Audio is best with all the mythology I can't pronounce. Thanks for reading with us!
