Description

The beautifully lyrical retelling of the Norse myths, told from the captivating point of view of the trickster god Loki

The novel is a brilliant first-person narrative of the rise and fall of the Norse gods - retold from the point of view of the world's ultimate trickster, Loki. It tells the story of Loki's recruitment from the underworld of Chaos, his many exploits on behalf of his one-eyed master, Odin, through to his eventual betrayal of the gods and the fall of Asgard itself.

Using her life-long passion for the Norse myths, Joanne Harris has created a vibrant and powerful fantasy novel.

Readers are captivated by The Gospel of Loki:

'A perfect introduction for the uninitiated... Apart from being original, funny and engaging, The Gospel of Loki is also brilliantly written... It's a delight to read' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?

'I've always been a fan of the antihero. While I cannot approve of everything that Loki did, he comes off the page as genuinely sympathetic and, dare I say -- human?' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?

'Harris manages to make you understand Loki, loathe those Gods who are mean to him, and root for Loki to succeed in his plans... I can advice this book to everyone who loves retellings of old myths' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?

'Well once again, Joanne Harris blows me away. What a brilliantly entertaining version of Norse mythology' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?

'The tone is perfectly witty without being too funny for suspense. The banter and humour just clicked with me and I smiled, grinned and snorted my way all through the book' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?

'If you love mythology and are interested in learning about the Norse Gods, I highly recommend' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
