Book Blurb
When a banished witch falls in love with the legendary trickster Loki, she risks the wrath of the gods.
Angrboda’s story begins where most witches’ tales end: with a burning. A punishment from Odin for refusing to provide him with knowledge of the future, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless. She flees into the farthest reaches of a remote forest. A man discovers her and reveals himself to be Loki. Her initial distrust of him transforms into a deep and abiding love.
Their union produces three unusual children, each with a secret destiny. Angrboda is keen to raise at the edge of the world, safely hidden from Odin’s all-seeing eye. As Angrboda slowly recovers her prophetic powers, she learns her blissful life—and possibly all of existence—is in danger.
With help from the fierce huntress Skadi, with whom she shares a growing bond, Angrboda must choose whether she’ll accept the fate that she’s foreseen for her beloved family…or rise to remake their future. From the most ancient of tales this novel forges a story of love, loss, and hope for the modern age.
