Seventeen-year-old Soren Bearskin is trying to escape the past. His father, a famed warrior, lost himself to the battle-frenzy and killed thirteen innocent people. Soren cannot deny that berserking is in his blood--the fevers, insomnia, and occasional feelings of uncontrollable rage haunt him. So he tries to remain calm and detached from everyone at Sanctus Sigurdand#39;s Academy. But thatand#39;s hard to do when a popular, beautiful girl like Astrid Glyn tells Soren she dreams of him. Thatand#39;s not all Astrid dreams of--the daughter of a renowned prophetess, Astrid is coming into her own inherited abilities.andamp;#160;andamp;#160;andamp;#160;When Baldur, son of Odin and one of the most popular gods in the country, goes missing, Astrid sees where he is and convinces Soren to join her on a road trip that will take them to find not only a lost god, but also who they are beyond the legacy of their parents and everything theyand#39;ve been told they have to be.
