Three Swords (Marvel Legends of Asgard)

by C L Werner

The Warriors Three must traverse space and time to save their realm from magical villainy, in this swashbuckling fantasy adventure from Marvel’s Legends of Asgard

During a fierce battle to free the people of Skornheim, the valiant Warriors Three – Fandral, Volstagg, and Hogun – encounter an ancient mystic who bears ominous tidings for Asgard. Three sorcerous brothers who call themselves the Enchanters have wrought evil across the realms, and are building armies with which to conquer the Realm Eternal. It has been foreseen that only one heroic trio can end their wicked plot… But the Enchanters are scattered through time and space, each fortified by their magical Living Talisman. The Warriors Three must be cast across the cosmos, to explore strange worlds, and risk life and limb against unimaginable odds to stop these sorcerers before they can overthrow Odin’s rule.

[Quirky Cat]

It's time to talk about the latest Marvel Legends of Asgard novel! Written by C.L. Werner, Three Swords follows, you guessed it! The Warriors Three (who are amazing, in case you were curious). The Warriors Three include Fandral, Volstagg, and Hogun.

The Warriors Three have earned their name again and again. They are warriors through and through, and thus you are most likely to find them on the battlefield. Following their most recent battle, they hear some concerning news.

Three sorcerer brothers, aka Enchanters, are stalking across the Realm Eternal with the unsurprising plan to defeat and conquer all – the usual. The Warriors Three must stand up against the sibling sorcerers if they want to help maintain the realm's peace.

Yes! It's time for another Marvel Legends of Asgard novel! And this time, we get to read (more) about the Warriors Three! They're my favorites (granted, I have a dozen favorites, whoops), so Three Swords was an exciting book to pick up.

If you don't know the Warriors Three, they consist of: Fandral (the Dashing), Hogunn (the Grim), and Volstagg (the Voluminous, the Svelte, the Valiant, he has many names). They are Asgardian heroes who have traversed many forms of Marvel media, including the comics, the movies, and now their own book!

Naturally, any book that involves these three will contain many battles. Three Swords is no different, and therefore it holds up the promise it made merely by existing. This book does have a few surprises, though, such as the antagonist, the magical twists and turns, and a few other details I won't ruin.

Long story short: Three Swords is a fantastic read, one that I strongly recommend all Marvel fans check out. This is especially true for those still hurting about their conclusion in Thor: Ragnarok. They have their time to shine here, and it is beautiful.

Thanks to Aconyte and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
