She is proud, brave, protective and doesn't ever back down but she has an issue with forgiving herself for the bad choice she made in boyfriends as young woman. I really loved Neecy, who is a kickass professor and second in command of her clan of Crows. Her arc is about letting go of guilt and accepting love. The Heroine was a drug dealer in her first life, killed by BF, & took full advantage of the second chance Skuld gave her. I really loved Hunting Season by Shelly Laurenston. (One caution, the younger Valkyries in this version are antagonists to the Crows, due to Odin's recent preoccupation with selecting strippers and there is lot slut-shaming conflict between them and the Crows.) However if you love and enjoy the Crow books you will love The Hunting Season.
While the Call of the Crow book are set in Southern California, the Gathering books are set in NYC/NJ, but that is really the only difference. The heroine in Hunting Season is also a Crow, a warrior for the Norse Goddess, Skuld. During the podcast Sarah asked her about this book, which was the first time I became aware of its existence. It was recorded prior to the third book of her Call of Crows series. Last year during a long drive I caught up on some podcasts listening and I heard a SPTB podcast with Laurenston . However I adore the brash sisterhood present in her books and the physical humor and bonkers plotlines just make me laugh. Her heroines are often bawdy, crass, and more than a little unbalanced.
