Relation To Books The Age of Odin (Pantheon #3)

Gideon Dixon was a good solider but bad at everything else. Now the British Army doesn't want him any more. So when he hears about the Valhalla Project it seems like a dream come true. They're recruiting from service personnel for execellent pay with no questions asked to take part  in unspecified combat operations. The last thing Gideon expects is to finding himself fighting alongside the gods of the ancient Norse pantheon. The world is in the grip of one of the worst winters it has ever known, and Ragnarok-the fabled final conflict of the Sagas-is looming.

Critique Regarding Books The Age of Odin (Pantheon #3)

I bought this book as liked the idea behind it, and it did seem to have a lot of good reviews, all about a down on his luck, out of work, injured ex-soldier stumbling into finding and joining the Norse gods battle a war.

Don't read this trash.

Wow. Just... wow.I'd read Lovegrove's The Age of Ra not too long ago, and had enjoyed aspects of his storytelling enough that I decided to pick up this book.

He tried working as a civilian, but mostly he got in fights and got arrested. His wife left him and he doesn't get to see his young son much, so when he sees an ad looking
