The Unyielding by Shelly Laurenston

The Unyielding (Call of Crows, #3)

by Shelly Laurenston

“When it comes to combining offbeat humor and mayhem, it is tough to beat Laurenston.” –RT Book Review

“If you enjoy outrageous scenarios, witty banter, and hilariously over-the-top characters, look no further than Shelly Laurenston’s Call of Crows series.”
 —SmexyBooks, Best Books of the Year

Stieg Engstrom, Angriest Viking Ever, has got big problems. The human Viking Clans of earth are in danger of being obliterated—along with the rest of the world—and the only one who may be able to save them is a super pain-in-the-ass Crow. Most people annoy Stieg, but this is the one woman he really can’t stand…

Erin Amsel loves being a Crow! Why wouldn’t she when the other Viking Clans are so hilariously arrogant and humorless? She’s not about to let all that come to an end! She just didn’t expect to be shoulder to shoulder in battle with Stieg. Then again, he’s so easy to torment—and also kind of cute.

With the future of the world riding on them, Stieg knows he’ll have to put aside his desperate need to kiss the smirk right off Erin’s face. Wait. What? He didn’t mean that—did he? No! They have one goal: To conquer the idiots. Because nothing bugs Stieg more than when idiots win. If only he can keep himself from suddenly acting like one…

Not gonna lie, these books are so much fun to me. They're totally crazy and so dysfunctional and I love every second of it!

I just wish we had focused more on our couple... I felt like for the first 40% of the novel, Erin and Steig were in one scene out of five, and I was really interested in their story. I didn't really care to see scenes about the way planning tbh lol

There are some characters here that desperately need a story of their own, and I wonder about the crossover option between this series and the shifter. We know it's set in the same world, and now there are some shifter characters that are bigger part of this series sooo
