About the author

Olaf Danielson author, storyteller, and adventurer typically goes where few men or women dare to go. On his blogs, www.nudebirder.com and www.olafdanielson.com he writes that some claim he could be the most interesting man in the world. He even likes Dos Equis Beer!

Now a resident of South Dakota, he grew up in a Swedish Immigrant community (Falun) in northern Wisconsin. In his writings, he writes about the odd things that could have happened to the immigrant families from the Dalarna region of Sweden where his family also came from and an area stepped in myths and legends of the old Norse and about people that seem to have a curse that if an odd thing could happen to them, it will.

Reviews

[Ted Bun · Rating 3 out of 5]

A different type of super hero to save the world aided by a different kind of super heroine.
Tattooed warriors against a rogue state...
It is an awkwardly paced action story but managed to hold it together long enough to keep me reading

[Mike Savage · Rating 3 out of 5]

Part of a series of fantastic characters with remarkable powers.
