Loki Bound

Mortal Gods Series, Book 1

De: Charity Ayres

Narrado por: Kim Rossi

Natural disasters, gods on Earth, a bid for world domination, and a snarky trickster god just wishing everyone would quit destroying her furniture. What more could you want?

The old gods are far from dead. Some of them live on, seeking mischief and mayhem in Norfolk, Virginia. Loki likes playtime on Earth and has chosen to embrace the feminine side of life as Cleo. Unfortunately for Cleo, something is off in the area, and it isn't due to a current bid for power by the trickster. That just won't do, as far as Cleo is concerned, but she realizes she might need some backup.

She asks big brother to step down a plane and play in the dirt. Rocky is a classical representation of Thor and not completely sure Cleo isn't up to her old tricks. The duo, nonetheless, sets out to find the power shift in the magical line in the mortal plane. Posing as FBI agents, they enlist the help of local detective Richard Martin.

The trickster makes a pact with her brother to keep the secrecy of their true purpose under wraps, but finds that the allure of mortal life may make a painful end to her existence for that promise.

Very unique and interesting book.

I love how the main character has a dual perspective with a little sassiness to go with it. This is a great read/listen.

Excellent series!

Other than some glitches in chapters 5 and 6 where one or more words went missing on several occasions, I could find no faults with this exciting tale.

Exceptional modern mythology

I received an audiobook for free in exchange for an honest review, and here goes. I’m in love with Richard Martin. He’s not the main character but there is something about the way the author describes him that just makes him..... mmmmm. He’s in a league with Roarke from Nora Roberts’ In Death series and Reyes Farrow from Darynda Jones’ Charley Davidson series. I have never heard so many descriptions of a character’s eyes before but it really paints a picture. On to the main character. Loki in a story, 10/10 will definitely read. Loki as a smartass, loud mouth female, 1,000 times better. This is a story that will stay with me for a long time and I definitely will revisit when the mood strikes. It’s funny, it’s a little intense. It’s hot in all the right spots. For a first novel, Charity Ayres has done an exceptional job at storytelling. Can’t wait to start the second novel to this series. I need more Detective Martin.

Funny with plenty of action

I like superheroes in general and this novel is a refreshing, light hearted take on some of my favorite Norse Gods. There is an underlying mystery, and a world to save... with all the action that entails. Still, it never loses that essential light heartedness that makes it fun. Overall, a favorite listen for me this month.
