“'Ariessy of Midgard' is an emotional fantasy adventure story that expertly hits all the right notes for young adult fantasy fans looking for an easy story with a unique blend of Norse mythology to get lost in. There is an alluring romantic aspect woven throughout this novel. At the start of the book, it seems like the story might be a little similar to Harry Potter, but it quickly turns into a fantastic combination of magic and mythology. The beauty of the Welsh countryside provides a captivating setting for the intrigue of Norse legends as Essy's preconceptions are challenged and changed with an alarming quickness. Ariessy's is an emotive and engaging character who is headstrong and intelligent. I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the story and had a hard time putting it down. The blend of existing mythology and the magic system created by Arthur make for a riveting story. ”
