Informazioni sull?autore
Louie Stowell started her career writing carefully researched books about space, ancient Egypt, politics, and science, but eventually lapsed into just making stuff up. The author of the Kit the Wizard series, she was inspired by her research into Norse myths to write Loki: A Bad God’s Guide to Being Good, which became a number-one UK bestseller, and its sequel, Loki: A Bad God’s Guide to Taking the Blame. Louie Stowell writes full-time in London, where she lives with her wife, Karen; their dog, Buffy; and a creepy puppet that is probably cursed.

About This Book
This is a magical diary, which should be a wondrous thing, but in reality it is a living nightmare. Every time I, Loki, god of mischief, record my deeds inside its pages, the diary calculates my so-called virtue score. This calculation rarely goes in my favor.
And to make matters worse, if I stray ever so slightly from the truth, it corrects me. I have to put up with such nonsense because this diary is programmed with the so-called wisdom of smelly bum-bum Odin.
Correction: Odin does not have a smelly bum-bum.
HA! Victory! I made the diary say “smelly bum-bum”!
Anyway. I have been sent to Midgard, which you peasants call Earth, as punishment for cutting off the goddess Sif’s hair. The conditions of my punishment are that I must take the form of a mortal child and refrain from displaying my amazing godly powers. Luckily, I’ve discovered a loophole: as long as mortals don’t SEE me transforming into various animals and beings, I can do it as often as I like.
This is, irritatingly, true.
Accompanying me are my fake family: Thor, Hyrrokkin, and Heimdall.
This is what I have done on Earth so far . . .
Discovered the horrors
of mortal school.
Made two mortal friends.

Defeated many Frost Giants!
(Well, the same ones twice.)
Woo-hoo!
Oh no!
Woo-hoo!
Oh no!
And received magical gifts . . .
BECAUSE I AM AWESOME and a Good God™ now.
A GIANT'S GUIDE TO MAGIC SPELLS FOR BEGINNERS Wand
Lie detected. You were NOT given the book (and by extension the wand) because you are “awesome” and a Good God™ now. Hyrrokkin said that you “still have far to go and a lot to learn.”
Harrumph. I guess that’s why I’m still stuck here . . .

Loki: A Bad God's Guide to Ruling the World (Paperback)
Da: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: new. Stowell, Louie (illustratore). Paperback. The spotlight is on trickster god Loki, still stuck as a peevish eleven-year-old, as he grapples with whether he will play the part of the hero or the villain in the school playand in his mortal life. Norse god Lokis been able to avoid eternity in a pit of angry snakes, but living on Earth as an eleven-year-old is still a drag. When Thor and Lokis parents abandon them to go on holiday, Odin sends BalderThors half brother and god of making Loki look badto babysit. Then theres the school play. Despite Lokis acting genius (its lying, after all), Thor is cast as the wonderful prince, while Loki is the villain. What?! At least Lokis found a cool ring to wear with his costume. One that looks suspiciously like the cursed ring of Andvari. Its probably a coincidence that when Loki wears it, everyone gives him the same adoring look they give Balder. And that new voice telling Loki to give in to his deepest, darkest desires is just his conscience, right? Loki starts to wonder: Whats the point of being good if everyones already decided youre bad? Drama and hilarity ensue in this third doodle-packed diary that will have readers giving Loki a standing ovation. "The spotlight is on trickster god Loki, still stuck as a peevish eleven-year-old, as he grapples with whether he will play the part of the hero or the villain in the school play and in his mortal life"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
