Curse of Shadows and Thorns - Geliebt von meinem Feind

I liked the Vikings aspect of this book. There was only a very little part that was Beauty and the Beast retelling (and I use the word retelling very very loosely), so I wouldn't get this if that is what your looking for. There was a lot of world building in this book as the 1st in the series, even with 100 pages left still getting new info. So it was very slow to get to the meat of the story. However once it was there, I enjoyed it. I spent the whole book unsure if I would get the next and continue reading. Once I got to the end, I did decide to read at least the next one before deciding for the rest of the series. 1 pepper of spice for this story!
