Addicted to YA discussion

I published my first book a few months ago, and it’s been both exciting and challenging to find my readers. So far I’ve managed to sell only around 50 copies online, and roughly the same number of the Finnish edition here in Finland.

What I’ve realized is how hard it is to get feedback. I’ve received a few reviews, most of them very positive, and I’m deeply grateful for every one of them. But it still feels a bit like I’m living in my own bubble, not knowing how the story truly lands with different readers. I am looking for more feedback.

Goodreads readers said me that I should reach out here on Goodreads to connect with readers and ask for honest comments and reviews.

If you’ve read After Ragnarok: Godless Age, or if you decide to give it a try, I’d really appreciate hearing your thoughts.

Thank you all in advance.

Story Summary

After Ragnarok, the world did not become a better place. Odin, Thor, and Loki are gone, and the few gods who survived have vanished. Power now belongs to those strong enough to seize it.

Auril, a young warrior raised by Captain Corvin, fights to survive in a land forsaken by the gods. At her side is a great white wolf named Aseana, whose size recalls the ancient myths of Fenrir. When King Firon’s armies crush the mercenaries’ resistance, Auril is captured along with a young man named Valko, who claims to know the resting place of the dead gods, the legendary Vingolf.

Meanwhile, a young woman named Inari discovers a strange amulet that binds her fate to the realm of the vanished gods.

Blood, power, and ancient divinities awaken in this dark, mythic fantasy adventure for adult and young adult readers alike.
