Thor's Serpents by K.L. Armstrong and M.A. Marr It was hard for Matt to pretend he didn’t know two wolves had followed them from the campsite. Reyna seemed to have no such problem. Maybe she thought he was imagining the Raider Scouts. More likely she just wasn’t about to let something as inconsequential as imminent death distract her from detailing every mistake he’d made yesterday, fighting the Viking zombie warriors known as the draugr. “And then, when you made it to the king’s throne, I noted a few tactical errors.” “I’m sure you did.” “I’m just trying to help you improve.
