DESCRIPTION:
Along with Astrid Glyn, a teen prophet who’s dreamed of Baldur’s location, Soren takes off on a road trip across the United States of Asgard in search of the lost god and a new future. Berserking is in Soren's blood, too: constant fevers and insomnia promise the power will explode in him any day. Seventeen-year-old Soren Bearskin fears both the past and the future.
