A stunning new entry in Canongate's internationally acclaimed Myths series, which includes books by Margaret Atwood, Karen Armstrong, Alexander McCall Smith, and Jeanette Winterson Hanck Orn's son is dead. When they come to the door, they tell him it was a heart attack but he knows they are lying. So he travels to the archipelago at the outermost reaches of the land to find out what really happened. He lands on an island and is met by a young woman, hair streaked with blood, raving like a lunatic. She and her sisters tell him the story of how his son died in the great hall of the Clan, the Norse gods, who were holding a party. The festivities had gotten out of hand, the guests began to argue with one another, and the mischievous shapeshifter Loki dealt a deadly blow. Set in a dystopian future that recalls Orwell and Zamyatin, this is a dizzying story of magnificent scope and foul play. Moving from the golden halls to the depths of the underworld, it is about one man's search for justice for his son in a world on the brink.
