Loki-The Mischief Behind the Legend: Norse Myths from The Children of Odin - Padraic Colum - Bog

The Norse myths that inspired generations of superhero fans and mythology-lovers.

Before he was the infamous movie villain....

Loki was the beloved God of Norse lore.

From Padriac Colum, three-time Newbery honor winner, comes this delightful collection of some of the greatest myths ever told, highlighting Loki's grand adventures.

Loki's antics are plentiful:

Convincing Thor to wear a wedding gown. Chopping off Sif's golden locks. Masquerading as a maiden among the Giants. Tricking dwarves into molding the ever-popular hammer.

And he does it all to save Asgard, time and again.

But Loki tires of the Gods' idiocy. And he's done being their lackey.

Could his anger lead to the destruction of Asgard and all the Gods?

Or will the Gods win?

Including a foreword from legendary Marvel writer Peter David, this is the origin story that all true Loki fans must know!
