The heroine was spunky and didn't take any crap - especially when her Philly accent/mannerisms came out. The synopsis was different, 2 gods looking for help to clear an assassination-attempt. Norse gods in this case. It was refreshing to read more in depth about the Norse gods and their squabbles. A lot of backstabbing occurs - this happens in most families anyway. The good guys step up and maybe not all the bad guys are bad. The romance was slow to simmer, it would build then stop then wham! Very believable relationship between the characters. I have already downloaded the next book and can't wait to see what happens. If you enjoy Bell's writing, give this series a try. Its not the same old Greek and Roman mythology.
