| book description |

This latest new book in the Myths, Gods & Immortals series offers an opportunity to explore the many facets of Loki – shapeshifting Norse god, at once an ally of and at odds with the other Aesir. From ancient tales to comics, TV and the movies, Loki's tempestuous relationship with the likes of Odin and Thor, his many forms and offspring, and his ambivalent character make him the classic trickster and an inspiration beyond Norse mythology. With a new introduction to the ancient stories, this powerful new title offers fresh perspectives with new stories from open submissions from across the world. A feast of imagination focused in a classic setting, Loki is a joyful celebration of an enduring character. Introductory essay by Matt Ralphs, and foreword by Dr Tom Birkett. The modern authors whose stories feature in this book are: Chris A. Bolton, Drew Conners, S. Cameron David, Stephanie Ellis, Corey D. Evans, Ariana Ferrante, Cara Giles, Sara Gonzalez-Rothi, Kay Hanifen, Justin R. Hopper, Michelle Kaseler, Mark Patrick Lynch, Nico Martinez Nocito, Mark Oxbrow, Diego Suárez, Jeffery Allen Tobin, C. Adam Volle, and M.M. Williams. The Flame Tree Myths, Gods & Immortals series brings together the new and the ancient, familiar stories with a fresh and imaginative twist. Each book brings back to life a legendary, mythological or folkloric figure, with completely new stories alongside the original tales and a comprehensive introduction which emphasizes ancient and modern connections, tracing history and stories across continents, cultures and peoples.
