I need Joanne Harris to write more fantasy books. She really is my favorite author, the one who got me back into reading, the one who makes me feel the magic through words and stories. I love her way of telling stories. She really is magical and warms your heart. Thank you for writing these books, you are truly a blessing o me.
About this book, I think it was a great way of introducing me to norse mythology. I really know nothing about it, except for what I've watched on Marvel movies. I went on searching for the gods a few times and loved to see that some characteristics were included here, namely Lokis' stitched scars. There was humor, there were sad moments, happy ones, a bit of everything. I think I found a new favorite.
