Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

This was an interesting story. It follows through brothers as they slowly trek through Norway, and attempt to bond. I found Martin's journey with his newfound faith as a Norse Pagan as a former Christian to be an interesting aspect. The tension between Martin and his family is never explicitly told until the ending, but it was fairly obvious what the cause of it was. It is a very slow-paced story, much akin to a drama. Honestly, I think this graphic novel would translate well into a drama movie. Though I did struggle to finish this graphic novel, because the pace is so slow, I struggled to keep focused on it. The art style itself was fine, I actually like it for the most part. Well, except when the artist had a character have their mouth completely open while shouting; those looked terrifying haha. Another flaw is the font. It made it VERY hard to read what was being said unless I zoomed in. Maybe it won't be as hard to read in a print version or on a larger screen, but reading on my phone was a bit of a struggle.… (more)
