Reviews
'This bad boy’s journey is a laugh-out-loud delight, packed with cartoons and footnotes, perfect for fans of The Wimpy Kid.' The Daily Mail
'
outrageously funny […] Sharp wit, ethical dilemmas, sly mythological references and oodles of doodles are a recipe for pure reading pleasure.
' Guardian
'Often laugh-out-loud funny, this is an irreverent romp through practical moral philosophy, like Netflix’s The Good Place with more snarky cartoon snakes.' Observer
'“Defiantly childish and silly – and all the better for it.”
' SFX - five stars

I devoured this hilarious doodly diary by the immensely talented Louie Stowell. So funny and magnificently clever. Learned about Norse mythology too which was a bonus! Right up my street, I'd thoroughly recommend Loki for comedy lovers 8+. Out Feb 2022.

This side-splitting tale, which contains an abundance of references to Norse mythology, is hugely entertaining from start to finish. A great choice for reluctant readers, it is generously illustrated with witty black-and-white cartoon drawings, and the daily diary entries break the text into manageable sections.

Absolute privilege to read this early. Loki is banished to Earth in body of 11 yr old boy & condemned to behave. But he's the God of Mischief! Brilliantly astute, effortlessly hilarious - could there possibly be a glimmer of goodness in Loki?!

I didn't know I wanted to read about Loki as a disgraced god forced into an Adrian-Mole-esque existence, but it turns out I do! Such a brilliant idea. This book is extremely funny, highly original and packed with quirky doodles.
