In the land of the midnight sun, where ruthless Vikings and shape-shifters roam free, an evil empress usurps the Northlandic Throne and suspends the seasons on Winter Solstice. Lucia and Soren were sent by the gods to defeat the empress, but deceits run deep, and they become torn between fate and reality... and between love and loyalty as the battle to end all battles begins.

What readers are saying:

Loved the Window into Norse mythology

Riveting and movie-worthy

I have just one problem with this book - I can't wait for the second one!

A wonderful period romantic thriller that grabs your attention in the first few pages, and never lets up on its grip.

Non-stop, fly by the seat of your pants suspense.

I...found the book to be an impressive Viking tale, with two very real, very well-described main characters.

This is one of those books that makes you say, "I'll read for twenty minutes." Then two hours later, you decide you need twenty minutes more.

Welcome to a cold, wintery world where nothing is what it seems.

Winter Solstice Winter has the perfect amount of intrigue, mystery, mythology, action, love and passion to make it a very good read.

Usually, I have no patience for historical fiction unless it offers something fresh or truly engaging to the story. Winter Solstice Winter does that and then a lot more. My advice is straightforward...GET THIS BOOK -- YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT!

5,0 su 5 stelle Royal Lifestyle's Not Too Comfy!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 15 ottobre 2013

Pros: The story line is very cool. Evelyn really has a grip on where this story takes the reader. The original characters are creative and I felt a sense of reality with them, although it is fiction with a mystical ancient royal lifestyle scenario. I loved when the Sun Queen Maud dies and they celebrate a proper Norse burial. It's scary, touching, gory and gave me the insight of how it really could have been back then. That's some of the juicy stuff in this novel. It's really a lot of fun. The details of the attire, fabrics, adornments, the hair, mannerisms, characters in general are very good. They have meaning, purpose, and goals. The scenes are well done and dreamy at times. The character conflicts are pretty good. There is some fun, light hearted conversations and acts amongst Ailia and Soren especially.

Cons: A tiny bit of character's behavior dragged out or repetitive in a couple of spots. When Lucia is getting help to escape she's having the chills, shakes, and then convulsing yet she was still getting around in that condition as described was a bit unbelievable but, it worked out—getting her to the next part of her adventure.

A brief summary on it and why I really thought it was worth reading:
After the death of Sun Queen Maud, and her proper Norse burial, her eighteen year old daughter Lucia's celebratory coronation is being planned and prepared. Her father King Olav will step back to let her reign over his Kingdom when it comes to keeping control of the changing of the seasons with the power of the Aisera Jewel. Lucia's father was always quite mean to her so when he suddenly ordered a private meeting with her to instill upon her the facts that only a King or Queen of the Aesira bloodline has the power to engage the Jewel she becomes overwhelmed by the severe plan for her future that she now has no control over.

Eiess wants to take over the Northlandic Kingdom and Lucia is fully aware that she is not of the Aesira blood line. Why would there be a problem she thought. Olav quickly informs her that Eiess will try to prevent her from engaging the Aisera Jewel to suspend the seasons. Lucia's mother was the keeper of the Jewel and now Lucia will be, and on the eve of the winter solstice Iluxia will show her how to perform the season shifting ceremony at Solhenge. Olav ordered her to not mention anything he explained to her to anyone nor where the Aesira Jewel was hidden.

Iluxia is more than a mere mortal and his presence is ever enlightening even for Olav. Lucia had met him and wished she'd be more like him. More than a mere mortal. Gaining excitement over her new existence as Sun Queen, Lucia's thoughts spun as Olav explained, with tears in his eyes, that Iluxia came to her Mother when she was born to tell her that she, Lucia--is the Great Sentinor per-destined to defeat Eiess. Her Mother had lived her last of three lives.

Later on...The Sentinor Soren and Aila really want each other after sometime of traveling in harsh conditions to help Lucia conquer Eiess and it's very funny when they think Brandon, Aila's adoptive father, knows what they're up to when they were approaching each other with passionate innuendos, hearing him say, “No, not like that!” To find he's on the other side of the wall talking in his sleep.

There's battles, deception, and quite a lot of action. I hope you will enjoy it like I did. It would be a fun action, adventure film.

5,0 su 5 stelle Gripping from the beginning
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 21 gennaio 2014

I tend to read a lot of fantasy books, but I was getting a bit fed up of wizards, dragons and dwarves so I was looking for something different and spotted this. It was a good price so I ordered it and I wasn't disappointed. Gripping from the start I soon found I couldn't put it down. I was pleasantly surprised how this book focuses on the girls; I was expecting a book about Vikings to be quite male dominated, but that doesn't mean that this is a girly book, there are some gruesome parts! The main characters are extremely well written; from the first chapter you feel like you know and understand them; I felt an empathy with the characters immediately, which is always a good start. I read so many books where I dislike the characters, so I'm not rooting for them in their quest or endeavours.

I think this book would appeal to a wide range of readers. Whether you're into love stories or epic adventures, there's something here for you. The suspense of the main story line about the sisters will keep you hooked, always wanting to find out what happens next. There's also some good twists in there!

A recommended read, I have already ordered the sequel.

4,0 su 5 stelle Interesting glimpse into Norse religion/mythology
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 25 ottobre 2013
Acquisto verificato
EJ Squires' Winter Solstice Winter revolves around two Sentinors or guardians who are tasked to restore balance to Midgard by taking down their treacherous counterpart, Eiess, also a Sentinor but of apparently much greater power. Lucia, Ailia and Soren must find each other through Eiess' tumultuously cruel reign of the Northlandic Kingdom before they can hope to work towards overthrowing the powerful Queen.

Although the story is straightforward despite a rather slow introduction to the protagonists, with a plot that can be seen a mile away, EJ Squires manages to give an interestingly detailed and hopefully accurate glimpse into what life must have been like during the era of Vikings. She has even incorporated the early introduction of Christianity to a land where the likes of Odin and Thor were worshipped as gods and fantastical creatures such as the Huldra roamed around. I also appreciate how a lot of the main characters were depicted as multi-dimensional characters, with both good and bad aspects, although the execution could have been better.

All in all, Winter Solstice Winter seems to be a fairly original tale, at least for me, since it basically exposed me to more Norse mythology beyond that of Asgard, Midgard and the coming Ragnarok. Despite its abrupt and somehow lackluster conclusion, I'm interested to see what volume two of this series will bring. Lastly, it could stand another round of proofreading and polishing as the number of typos seems too great to ignore.
