If she can survive winter in the mountains surrounded by all of her enemies, she has the opportunity to confront her brother face to face and demand answers.īut when the Riki village is raided by a ruthless clan who has also attacked the Aska village in the past – the same clan who killed Eelyn’s mother - Eelyn becomes desperate to get back to her family. How is it possible that Eelyn’s brother is there if she actually saw him die? And why in the world would he be fighting against his own people and for his sworn enemy?ĭuring one of the clashes between the Aska and Riki, Eelyn is captured and taken up into the mountains to the Riki village. It’s a total WTF moment and I was immediately hooked and, like Eelyn, I had so many questions that I wanted answers to. The fighting is fierce and the energy is electric, but all of that fades away when Eelyn sees something on the battlefield she never expects to see – her brother, who she watched die in battle five years ago, apparently alive and well and fighting for her enemy. Sky in the Deep opens with our main character, 17 year old Eelyn, and her Aska clan engaged in battle with their lifelong enemies, the Riki clan. (Have I mentioned that I love Viking stories?) I was hoping for an exciting, action-packed read, and I’m thrilled to say that I got that and so much more. MY REVIEW:Īs soon as I realized Sky in the Deep was about Vikings, it immediately became one of my most anticipated reads of 2018.
