He even goes out of his way to 'help' make it happen knowing the consequences. Yes, they are spoilers of what's to come, but I found that very interesting. Now the time has come to go beyond petty schemes and seize the most powerful throne in existence. Overall this book definitely gets 5 out of 5 stars and I am adding my new signed copy Thanks again Mike! It felt very repetitive and episodic, many things simply happen without any explanation or background.

Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes, who has problems with closet space because she has too many books.
But I think it will prove to be one of those things that I'll read again and appreciate more, because it is a very creative and novel concept, weaving Loki into that tale. The olki and formatting were great, though. As with any alteration of a well-known original story there were some additions and omissions I liked, others I actually detested.
This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. He put a fantastic spin on Norse myths dealing with that most controversial of Asgardian figures and did so in a way that breathes new life into the stories, making them a complete pleasure to read.
Search for a book to add a reference. Though the author can get his point across just fine.
Apr 07, Emily Parks rated it it was amazing Shelves: You wanted it to end differently, you HOPED it would end differently, even though you knew that it wouldn't. By continuing to use this website, you agree to their use. Given how much faith they place in his wisdom even as he sees their ruin approaching, it's no wonder Odin sometimes has reminders of what role he's truly playing among the gods: His hobbies include taking naps, sowing disrespect for revered institutions, and mikf children cry especially his own.
So first vaisch allthe writing ; while I found the prose easy to understand and readablethe rapidly changing point of view bugged me. His hobbies include taking naps, sowing disrespect for revered institutions, and making children cry especially his own. Preview — Loki by Mike Vasich. It will not be the end of the world. I mean, the man is just scintillating with unbridled sex appeal!
What I expected was more Loki, a story focused on his character, that incorporated the original myths and characters, but also did its own thing. I think the author could benefit from a better copyeditor. Give her the gift of words, in poetry and in song.
Review of Loki by Mike Vasich
It was slightly disturbing and felt 'off' to me I wanted to see how Thor and Loki got there in the first place. The last hundred pages or so I had to stay up into the night to finish.
What is its purpose?! This short story collection recounts many of Loki's most famous tales, and opens up a whole new perspective on the god of mischief's reasoning.
Loki: Nine Naughty Tales of the Trickster
He would tell the brief synopsis of a myth that you would find in the actual Prose Eda in italics. For instance, I loved the scene where she was getting ogled by the dwarfs and then she snaps one of their necks. He definitely gets the dirty end of the stick in some of the myths, and the ,ike gods treat him poorly, even when he helps them. Take comfort in the fact that your fangirl army is strong and keep reminding yourself that Do you have a favorite scene?
I had a great mental picture of those final battles, and I took perverse joy in killing off so many characters in such brutal, yet heroic, ways. I'm a mythology nerd and I was very excited to see a book about Loki's side. Honestly, Lloki was only in this book for about half the time, so I'm not sure why this is supposedly all about him? As you know, I was brought to the book after watching the film Thor, so the extent of my Moke Mythology knowledge is that one Marvel film and now your book.
It proves to be a journey filled with betrayal, chaos, bloodshed, vqsich death. Oh yes, the battles will make you gasp and make your heart race.
