​"A good mix of strong action scenes, intriguing lore and personal development helps elevate this YA fantasy above its well-worn tropes." Kirkus.

"I really loved this plot, it was like nothing I’d read before...Being from Northern Ireland, I enjoyed reading about a world just south of the border, it was intriguing to see characters with Irish names and sailing across the Irish Sea. I have never read a book set predominantly in Ireland despite being from this area of the world." Mrsmamfa's Blog

"There are traces of mythology well known to enthusiasts of Celtic lore, and even a little taste of Arthurian legend. If you're a fan of Rick Riordan's novels, then you'll enjoy this book." Amazon Reviewer

"Not often I read something so well written that I miss my subway stop. You'll want this." Frank Zagottis, Film Producer/Director

"This is a great young adult story that will appeal to everyone. I can’t wait to read more from Gary Nilsen." Jessica Bronder of J Bronder Book Reviews


"Reading this book felt like walking a knife's edge between despair and hope. It reminded me of Neil Gaiman's Stardust blended with the rawness of The Perks of Being a Wallflower. It's fantastical, yes, but painfully human at its core." Goodreads Reviewer

"Alfheim stunned me. It isn't often that a book manages to balance intense emotional depth with thrilling action, but Gary A. Nilsen pulls it off beautifully." Goodreads Reviewer
