Her dynamic with her family and her personal growth were both parts of the book I really enjoyed. Rasmira was a strong female protagonist, who defies gender roles even at the expense of losing her relationship with her mother. The characters were all interesting and well-rounded, something Tricia Levenseller is amazing at. ‘I found you broken and bleeding on the ground.’ “‘I just think it should be pointed out that you’re a fierce warrior woman and I’m a fierce warrior man, so we should spend some time together.’ I admit, I did see the twist coming, but it was so satisfying to see it play out! The romance was also predictable but the author made its inevitability funny and called it out, so it was easy to forgive (gotta love lampshading). The plot was interesting, with plenty of action and a somewhat-surprising yet believable twist. The pacing was fast, almost to a fault, where the ending felt a little rushed. If you want some somewhat-spoilery specifics, check out my goodreads review where I hid it in a spoiler tag. It’s about being interested in the boy who is finally worth it.” “It’s not about giving in to the first boy who ever acted interested. Tricia Levenseller has a gift in making me want to read more in the worlds she creates, because of how vast and unique she makes them. Despite being a fantasy novel, the worldbuilding never felt heavy and hard to wade through, yet still vivid and compelling. I also loved the differences between each of the villages and the Viking inspiration behind it all. Meanwhile, the setting in this book was really interesting. That said, this was still very well-written. It was straightforward and compelling, but it did lack some of the magic that her first series had. I wasn’t as drawn in as I was with Daughter of the Pirate King. Tricia Levenseller’s writing style was good. “My soul has worth, and I won’t let it depart this world just yet.” She is tasked with killing the god that has been threatening her village for centuries or die trying. Except, mattugrs are designed to be impossible, and a suicide mission at best, and hers is no exception. However, she may return if she completes her mattugr. On the day of her trial to become a warrior, she is betrayed by someone she trusted and banished from her village. Warrior of the Wild follows Rasmira, the daughter of the Seravin village leader. Content Warning: Violence, Death, Abuse, Assault, Rape Mention (very brief), Human Sacrifice (brief)// ‘You want someone who lifts you up, not tries to bring you down.’”
“‘A man who finds his masculinity threatened by a powerful woman is no man at all,’ he says. While it might have lacked some of the magic of Tricia Levenseller’s previous series, it still stole my heart. Review in a Nutshell: Warrior of the Wild is an addictive read.
