Lokis Children is the tale of the Norse gods and goddesses and a satirical critique of the Abrahamic religions. It begins with the life of Odin, chieftain of the Aesir, and follows him on his quest to liberate mankind from the tyrannical grip of the first race of frost giants and their ruler, the mad Ymir. While Odin seeks to build a new world from the bones and blood of the old, the mysterious figure of Loki inveigles his way into the tribe of gods. Through the narrative, Loki and his three monstrous children come to symbolize the Abrahamic religions and their impact on the native belief systems that existed in Northern Europe prior to the advent of Christianity. Loki works tirelessly in the shadows to unseat the Aesir from their achievements and to throw the pantheon of gods into war and disarray with the ultimate goal of restoring humanity to a state where there is but one ruler: himself. Only the wisdom and courage of Odins sons, together with the goddess Freya and her tribe, can stand in Lokis way, but are the gods themselves more powerful than fate?
