Description

A man is in denial that his dog is possessed by a Nordic sea demon, but can he continue to turn a blind eye with the fate of the world at stake?

Review - by ReviewGoblin.com. When I first started reading this story I wasn't sure what to expect and wasn't prepared for what this book was about to deliver. I found myself thrown into the delightful mind of David A Burt with a line delivered before the true start of the story, in an amusing forward. A forward that established this story will be unreasonable, unrealistic, and fun. It was all I hoped for and more.

Here is that line: "Inger from Knogsvinger was an utter fabrication, and I do hope that should any Ingers from Kongsvinger be in the scarf business that they appreciate that this is an entirely unintentional coincidence." I should explain, ever since I was little I have always been a fan of Terry Pratchett. I carried around a copy of "Small gods" for years when books were things that people still carried. That line about unintentional coincidence is the sort of thing that adds a subtle depth to the work. It may or might not be something many fans would recognize, but depth is the true heart of great satire.

There is a quality present in David's writing that gives it the tone and gravitas needed to be great satire. He doesn't always hit that high standard, but he is consistent. As a fan of the genre, this was a clear sign I was in the right place. "Thora and the Hound of Asgard" delivers witty and imaginative writing. The story is well written and could sit next to the mainstream favorites in any bookshop. It was too short in some places and he seemed to skip a few scenes during the story. This may have been done for pacing, though some readers might want more. The story was still satisfying, even with the skipped scenes.

To sum up, "Thora and the Hound of Asgard" follows a group of Norse gods, invisible trolls, dwarves, and a man named Terry. The cover shows Thora, but the true star of this narrative is Terry. And Terry would rather not be bothered to save the world. It is a modern comedy fantasy fit to hold its own against established classics. Pick this one up when you get the chance, it will not disappoint.
