"For seventeen-year-old Brynhildr, mischief is in her blood. No matter what she does, Bryn just can't seem to measure up to her family's expectations. In fact, compared to her practically perfect older sisters, she might be the worst Valkyrie ever. But fortune favors the bold, and Bryn is about to learn how the ties between fate and choice are as interwoven and unbreakable as the bonds between sisters. In the wake of her mother's mysterious disappearance, and the discovery of a pointy-eared stranger who raves about the coming Ragnorok, keeping a low profile is impossible - especially once nightmarish creatures from Norse mythology come to wreak havoc upon the world. As chaos ensues, Bryn must put aside her puckish ways to protect her friends, family, and the world she calls home by becoming the Valkyrie she was always destined to be. But when she breaks her sacred Valkyrie oath by saving a young man destined for Valhalla, Bryn realizes she may have accidentally started Ragnarök herself. Worse still - she might not be strong enough to stop it"-- Provided by publisher.
