What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

Vampire Diaries meets Norse mythology in this sequel to Soul of Shadow from TikTok sensation Emma Noyes.

I will make myself strong.
I will find Elias.
I will kill Elias.
I will never trust a boy with my heart again.

These are the vows Charlie Hudson made the day after Elias Everhart betrayed her, nearly killing everyone she loves most. One month later, revenge is still her priority, even as she navigates a harsh new reality: one where her brother and friends can now see Asgard, making them just as susceptible to its dazzling delights - and deadly dangers - as she is.

But when two bodies turn up in the forest outside town, and Elias waltzes back into her life with an offer to help find out what's happening, Charlie finds herself accepting his offer—but only because feigning an alliance is her best chance to figure out how to kill him. And if it feels like the more time she spends with him, the more her heart softens, it must be a trick of the unusually warm fall air. Because there’s no way she would make the grave mistake of falling for Elias Everhart twice… right?
Praise of Soul of Shadows:-
“What happens when an ordinary teen finds herself rocketed into an overlapping world of Nordic mythology? In Noyes’ case — a breakneck story and surprising twists.” - Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author
'Norse mythology and folklore permeate a treacherous, atmospheric setting bursting with magic and danger' Publishers Weekly

Critics Review

The story is vibrant, the pacing sharp; plus, the supporting cast shines, making this a perfect fit for fans of morally gray love interests, dark mythology, and found-family storytelling. The themes of family, forgiveness, and anxiety are woven with care, grounding the magic in emotional truth. Full of heart and tension-filled scenes, this beautifully written sequel emphasizes that, even in chaos, love and redemption burn brightest of all.
