Loki: A Bad God's Guide to Taking the Blame follows Loki, who might not have shown any moral improvement yet, but Odin has given him another chance to prove himself worthy of Asgard by keeping Earth safe from the threat of Frost Giants.

However, eleven-year-old Loki has more important things to worry about: Parents Evening.

After a series of 1-star reviews from his teachers, Loki is jealous of the glowing adoration bestowed upon Thor and swears vengeance. So, when Thor has a birthday party and his favourite hammer, Mjolnir, goes missing, everyone suspects Loki.

To clear his name, Loki must find Thor’s hammer and discover who the real thief is...

About the Author

Louie Stowell writes books about magic, gods and monsters (mostly). She has written carefully-researched books about space, ancient Egypt, politics and science but eventually lapsed into just making stuff up. She has written fiction for 8–12 (Nosy Crow and Walker Books US), but Loki: A Bad God's Guide series is her first as both author and illustrator, inspired by her research into Norse myths.
