SOLVED. YA book based on Norse myth [s]

[Claire]

Hi

I recently read a review of a new ya novel based on Hel the daughter of Loki. She is half girl and half corpse from the waist down. I believe the review was in the U.K. Daily Mail but I cannot find any reference to it anywhere.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Claire

Could it be the new series by Rick Riordan? The Magnus Chase series is about the Norse myths.

Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series by Rick Riordan for Shelley's suggestion - https://www.goodreads.com/series/8221...

No, unfortunately it is not this series. I think lokis daughter is the main protagonist.

I hope you find the book it sounds good. I'd like to read it.

Any chance it could be Runelight? I haven't read it but the first book, Runemarks was based on Norse mythology and Loki had a big role.

I think the book is a recent release as it was a recent book review. It's not Runelights as this is a few years old.

They both sound like great books though

Oh, now I see there is a 3rd in the series, 2014: The Gospel of Loki.
I found it via this list: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/6...
