Rezensionen

PRAISE FOR CHILDREN OF RAGNAROK: "This sweeping, Norse myth-inspired series opener from Chima... toggles between Eiric's and Reggin's equally electrifying perspectives, and the tension, stakes, and complications mount as their paths intertwine. The vibrantly characterized, racially diverse cast is replete with courageous, resourceful women, imparting feminist undertones. Despite its scope, length, and complexity, Chima's epic never outstays its welcome, stoking anticipation for the sequel." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
