Matt Thorsen knows that his ancestor was Thor, literally. His family are left with some abilities. Fen and Laurie Brekke are the descendents of Loki, a seer sees that Matt will be pivotal in Ragnarok and maybe it might be a good idea, from his family's point of view, for him to fail, they're not t...

A middle-grades book. The author is Kelley Armstrong - is the 'initial' thing an attempt to sell this book to boys? Aren't we past that yet?This story does to Norse mythology what Percy Jackson and the Olympians did to Greek mythology. The book is very, very similar in tone and feel to Rick Riordan'...

Other reviews at The Book Babe's Reads.Due to copy and paste, formatting has been lost.(3.5 STARS)Loki's Wolves was just one of those books that I picked up because it was a middle grade.

I wanted to love this, but it just felt so... dry. Flat. Full of telling and very little showing. I can read MG and enjoy it, but this was just not the series for me.

Not sure what I'm going to think of this book. It is more for kids 8-13, but I love the author. I've read several of her adult and young adult series, so I'm willing to give this a try. Also, it is about the Norse mythology, which I would love to read more about. I'm a few pages in and so far, I'...

Die deutsche Rezension findet ihr hier.___________________________People in Blackwell are different, because they are descendants of Germanic gods. Not everybody knows about it, but Matt Thorsen is aware of the fact that one of his ancestors is Thor. Fen Brekke knows it as well, only that in his cas...

This is an MG book. I know I don't often read MG, but when you have Kelley Armstrong and Melissa Marr as the authors I have to at least check it out. I'm glad that I did. Even adults will probably enjoy this tale.What I think I most enjoyed about this tale was that it didn't talk down to the reader....

I've read quite a lot of popular, juvenile fantasy over the years. Anything my younger sister likes, I pick up and read along. Some of these collaborations have been great (she gets credit for Harry Potter, to be sure). Some have been disappointments... either too juvenile or too derivative to hold ...
