Book Information
Parts 1-3 of the legendary TOOTH AND BLADE series together for the first time!
Two worlds. One destiny.
Dóta has dwelled sixteen years among the trolls. She knows nothing but the darkness of her family’s cave. Her mother says humans are beasts who would slay them all. Yet the gods of Asgard whisper in the night: Dóta is a child of men, a monster unto monsters.
To discover her human side, Dóta must take up her bone knife and step into the light above. Secrets await her in the human realm—beauty, terror, the love of a princess.
Soon Dóta must choose between her clan and humankind, or both worlds will be devoured in fire and war.
A monster sheds no tears.

My Review
4☆ An Enjoyable, Thrilling, Pacy, Endearing and Entertaining Read
Tooth and Blade is three fairly short Novellas written into one book, I actually really enjoyed this style of book. It made for a quick, endearing and entertaining read.
Dóta isn't like the others. She's different from her Mother Módor and Brother Grethor.
Módor found Dóta in The shivering woods, Near the man-
village, 16years ago whilst out hunting. Módor raised her as her own, teaching her to be one of them.
Despite Módor's warnings to stop asking questions about Humans and where Dóta came from, she just couldn't help herself and was desperate to learn more and find the truths.
So when she finally decides to let Dóta up to the Human world to learn how to hunt, Dóta is taken back by how protective she is when her brother tries to kill a man.
Grethor leaves Dóta in the Human world alone as she is a traitor and a thief as far as he is concerned.
But how will Dóta cope with this unknown world? Can she find the answers she so desperately craves?
Tooth and Blade is a story full of adventure, mystery, fantasy, danger, discovery, it has a coming of age feel to it.
I really liked the sexuality aspect as Dóta tries to figure out her sexuality and find her place. It's so important to let people know it's ok to be different.
I know books are all about imagination and personal interpretation, but I would of loved to of seen pictures of Módor and Grethor to see if how I imagined them to look was the same. Sometimes i think YA/NA books could do with a smidge of illustration.
This isn't my normal genre but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed reading all about Dóta, and how quickly I settled into the story.
I am really looking forward to reading more from Julian Barr.

Author Bio
Julian Barr first fell in love with all things ancient and magical in childhood, when he staged his own version of I, Claudius using sock puppets. After his PhD in Classics, he did a brief stint as a schoolteacher, hated being called 'sir,' and dived into storytelling. Although he remains open to the possibilities of sock puppet theatre, historical fantasy is his passion. He has published scholarly research on Roman medicine and the gastronomic habits of Centaurs, but prefers to think of himself as an itinerant bard. He is also the author of the Ashes of Olympus trilogy.
