The world knows Loki as the trickster god, the deceiver, the bringer of chaos. But what if you heard the story from his side? In The Gospel of Loki, bestselling author Joanne M. Harris reimagines Norse mythology through the eyes of its most infamous figure. From his origins as a misunderstood outsider to his rise as Asgard’s greatest troublemaker, Loki narrates his version of events with wit, charm, and a sharp-tongued irreverence. This fast-paced, darkly humorous novel brings a fresh perspective to familiar myths, exploring themes of fate, free will, and the cost of rebellion. Whether you see Loki as a villain or a hero, one thing is certain—this is his story, his truth, and his revenge. A must-read for fans of mythology, The Gospel of Loki is a spellbinding journey into the mind of the trickster, where the lines between hero and villain are blurred forever.
