onceuponanisabel 's review for:
Loki: Where Mischief Lies
by Mackenzi Lee
I mean...I'm a Marvel stan. So, it's not like I was ever going to hate this book.
A lot of the plot was just kind of the first Thor movie but like...better? Loki does some thoughtless idiotry, so Odin sends him to Earth in punishment under the guise of a mission. Once there, Loki meets an Earthling scientist who humbles Loki and teaches him some life lessons. Except it's better, because it's set in Victorian London, and there's an actual plot where Loki has to solve some murders and have a big climactic fight ON A TRAIN.
My biggest gripe is the pacing. The first third of this book basically functions as a prologue which is just...entirely too long for a prologue.
