To be honest, I read these books when. I was quite young and loved them. The three are together in a well loved tome on my bookshelf.
I was nervous to listen to these books, some thirty years later, incase they were better through the rose colored glasses of time. I was delighted to learn that my young self had impeccable taste.
I love these books as much now as I had then. The writing is fantastic and the narration is lovely.

Freya's dreams abruptly become reality when her husband betrays her to the region's jarl, landing her in a fight to the death against his son, Bjorn. To survive, Freya is forced to reveal her deepest secret: She possesses a drop of a goddess's blood, which makes her a shield maiden with magic capable of repelling any attack.

Prepare yourself for a binge listen. I could not turn this off once I started. She had me from the first chapter. Fantastic.
Also, the narration is great!
10/10. I will absolutely pre-order the next book if pre-order is available.

Story
When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.

This book was exactly what I needed. It's a lovely, fun, touching story.
This book is like a leisurely walk on a beautiful sunny day. It's worth the credit.

Story
Welcome to the Gun Show! The top 10 list is populated. The sponsorship program is open. The difficulty is ramping up. The first three floors were nothing compared to what Carl and Donut now face. The Iron Tangle. An impossibly complicated subway system built out of the world's subterranean railway systems, all combined and then tied together into a knot. Up is down. Down is up. Close is far. The cars are filled with monsters, the railway stations are less than safe, and the exit is always just a few stops away.

It's OK. The stakes never really feel high. The danger never really feels all that present. Dire situations are met with sarcasm and shrugs.

The ratings and views are off the chart. The fans just can't get enough. The dungeon gets more dangerous each day. But in a grinder designed to chew up and spit out crawlers by the millions, Carl and Princess Donut need to work harder than ever just to survive. They call it the Over City. A sprawling, once-thriving metropolis devastated by a mysterious calamity. But these streets are far from abandoned. An undead circus trawls the ruins. Murdered prostitutes rain from the sky. An ancient spell is finally ready to reveal its dark purpose.

Story
A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible. In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

Fantastic from start to finish.
And the narrator? This is a book that you want to listen to, not read. This is probably the best narrated book that I have ever listened to.
12/10 would recommend.
