'We live as men - but fight as gods.'
Born on the gallows, the corpse of his mother swinging from the rope above, the villagers brand him The Bane of the North and leave him out for the Fug to claim - a deadly fog ruled by Draugr - Viking warriors that had long ago fallen in battle. They didn’t expect to find him the next day, tattooed with the mark of an ancient god.
Fifteen winters later - ridiculed, scorned; but never broken, Bane forges a life as a forager, surviving between Castle Garik and a looming mountain that legend says contains the body of a Norse god. In a strange twist of fates Bane discovers that the mark gives him abilities beyond that of mortal man, and along with his lineage and a blood link to the god, his journey unfolds, fraught with danger and purpose.
As the drums of war close in, and the time of men comes to an end, Bane could be the North’s only hope.

My only complaint is Alruna's voice. I also feel like she might be painted as the stereotypical spoiled chiefs daughter until the 3 quarters of the way through the book.

Spoiler Alert
I also found it it extremely unpleasant that he swore an oath to the family that is the cause of basically all his problems.
Interesting premise with a disappointing execution.
