A prequel short story about seventeen-year-old Ellie just days before her epic encounter with legendary women warriors in Valkyrie Rising, told from the point of view of infuriating-yet-lovable Tuck. 

The enticing world of Valkyrie Rising, Ingrid Paulson’s debut teen novel, is introduced in "Valkyrie Symptoms," a prequel short story. This original story introduces the characters from the perspective of the ever-flippant-if-undeniably-alluring Tucker Halloway. It also includes a teaser to Valkyrie Rising, a novel in which deadly legends, hidden identities, and tentative romance swirl together into an unexpectedly epic adventure when Ellie travels to Norway with her big brother and his best friend, Tuck, and encounters Valkyries: the legendary women warriors of Norse mythology.

------------------------------
Nothing ever happens in Norway. But at least Ellie knows what to expect when she visits her grandmother: a tranquil fishing village and long, slow summer days. And maybe she’ll finally get out from under the shadow of her way-too-perfect big brother, Graham, while she’s there.

What Ellie doesn’t anticipate is Graham’s infuriating best friend, Tuck, tagging along for the trip. Nor did she imagine boys going missing amid rumors of impossible kidnappings. Least of all does she expect something powerful and ancient to awaken in her and that strange whispers would urge Ellie to claim her place among mythological warriors. Instead of peace and quiet, there’s suddenly a lot for a girl from L.A. to handle on a summer sojourn in Norway! And when Graham vanishes, it’s up to Ellie—and the ever-sarcastic, if undeniably alluring Tuck—to uncover the truth about all the disappearances and thwart the nefarious plan behind them.

Deadly legends, hidden identities, and tentative romance swirl together in one girl’s unexpectedly-epic coming of age.
