My favorite trickster is back and hasn’t lost his charm at all. Instead of retelling Norse mythology, Harris chose to tell Loki’s escape from Netherworld in a modern setting. A fabulous idea, I might add, since the old gods don’t know much about this new world and have to learn how to adapt. This book was full of humor and deceit (within deceit within deceit and so on, which sometimes got quite confusing) and I had a great time with it. Only two things bugged me: 1. I wish Loki stayed truer to himself and got less effected by human emotion. Yes, that would make him a pretty bad person, but he is a god and the world’s biggest trickster at that, so that’s to be expected. 2. While I really appreciate that humans with bodily defects (don’t know if I used the right word here) and disorders played a huge part in this book, overcoming an eating disorder was overly simplified. If it really was that easy to “heal” an eating disorder, people wouldn’t have to die of it. It’s a rocky and exhausting path and the book didn’t do this circumstance justice.
