Odyssey

Tales from Olympus, Book 3

By: Erik Schubach

Narrated by: Allyson Voller

The United Races have become stronger in the centuries, after losing their greatest beacon of peace and gentleness. Olympus has moved the palace and capitol City Tree of Alfheim into the citadel in case the Jotunn reach the Olympian's host world.

The daughter of Queen Jania Sure Step, the All Mother of the Ljósálfar and Dökkálfar elves, is at a crucial juncture in her life as she becomes an adult. She must choose from three paths before her, yet she feels none of those are her calling.

Crowned Princess of the Elves, Arin, named for the fallen Hero of Asgard and Olympus, finds a path lost to her people and restarts old traditions so that she may stand as the Iron Wall for her Elvish heritage.

But when both Titan and Frost Giant Star Killer vessels threaten her world, will her resolve be enough? And what are these flashes and visions she has been seeing since she was born?

This final chapter of the Tales From Olympus holds the key to a universal peace, or Alfheim's fiery end.

The Tales From Olympus are the continuation of the Valkyrie Chronicles.

Erik has done it AGAIN! Bawling my eyes out!

I've been looking forward to this capstone book of Erik Schubach's Valkyrie Chronicles books.
After leaving us on the horrible cliffhanger of Arina saving the Olympian citadel, but being destroyed herself at the end if Alfheim, it was the first time that I didn't want to read the book that came after. It had hurt that much. But read it I did, (This book, in case you were wondering.)
As heartbreaking as the tears were at the end of the last book, this one drug even more out of me.
I won't spoil it for you. But if you are like me, definitely listen to this on as the end will have you crying too, only the good tears.

Why?!

I have listened to all of this series, multiple times, and I love it. It’s a well thought out universe.
So I don’t understand why at the very last, the last 2 books you’d get another narrator. And why if you are that narrator would you not listen to the prior narrators work to know how to pronounce all the name’s?! It is so frustrating to get jarred out of the story by a wildly mispronounced name.

Sad

Loved the story, but Sad that this one only has three books. Of course, I also found it funny that the narrator of the series was mispronouncing certain names. It must have been by design, but was still a little jaring to hear.
Really going to miss all these characters.
