Loki's Wolves

LOKI'S WOLVES by K. L. Armstrong and M. A. Marr is a delightful tale of mythology, coming of age, and magic! Blackwell is a place where the long decedents of Thor and Loki live. Throughout this excellently written story we follow the adventures of Matthew Thorson and Fen and Laurie Brekke as they take on their destiny and try to save the world. Matthew Thorson is a decedent of Thor, and has just been named the Champion of Thor. We follow Matt as he figures out what that entails, and how he is supposed to go about changing his destiny. Matt's first quest is to locate the other champions then collect the items he needs to fight the Midgard Serpent and stop Ragnarök, the end of the world. LOKI'S WOLVES is by far one of the most entertaining and enlightening tales I have read in quite a while. Armstong and Marr have done such a wonderful job intertwining mythology into this story that any young reader will learn a great deal as well as have a delightful tale running through their minds. LOKI'S WOLVES is a story for the ages, it is one that many a generation could enjoy and learn a lot from. It is a great story and I really cannot wait for the next.

SUMMARY

"The runes have spoken. We have our champion...Matthew Thorsen."

Matt hears the words, but he can't believe them. He's Thor's representative? Destined to fight trolls, monstrous wolves and giant serpents...or the world ends? He's only thirteen.

While Matt knew he was a modern-day descendent of Thor, he's always lived a normal kid's life. In fact, most people in the small town of Blackwell, South Dakota, are direct descendants of either Thor or Loki, including Matt's classmates Fen and Laurie Brekke. No big deal.

But now Ragnarok is coming, and it's up to the champions to fight in the place of the long-dead gods. Matt, Laurie, and Fen's lives will never be the same as they race to put together an unstoppable team, find Thor's hammer and shield, and prevent the end of the world.
