An instant New York Times best seller!*This deft, nuanced examination of identity, destiny, and agency is a surprisingly tender addition to the Marvel canon." ―Kirkus Reviews, starred review*"This mischievous origin story is sure to satisfy fans of the popular character." ―Booklist, starred reviewSelected for the ILA-CBC 2020 Young Adults' Choices reading list.This is the first of three young adult novels from New York Times best-selling author Mackenzi Lee that explores the untapped potential and duality of heroism of popular characters in the Marvel Universe. Before the days of going toe-to-toe with the Avengers, a younger Loki is desperate to prove himself heroic and capable, while it seems everyone around him suspects him of inevitable villainy and depravity . . . except for Amora. Asgard's resident sorceress-in-training feels like a kindred spirit―someone who values magic and knowledge, who might even see the best in him. But when Loki and Amora cause the destruction of one of Asgard's most prized possessions, Amora is banished to Earth, where her powers will slowly and excruciatingly fade to nothing. Without the only person who has ever looked at his magic as a gift instead of a threat, Loki slips further into anguish and the shadow of his universally adored brother, Thor. When Asgardian magic is detected in relation to a string of mysterious murders on Earth, Odin sends Loki to investigate.As he descends upon nineteenth-century London, Loki embarks on a journey that leads him to more than just a murder suspect, putting him on a path to discover the source of his power―and who he's meant to be.

アンカット本です。
最初は不良品だと思いましたが、どうやら小口の部分のみのアンカット本です。(天地は綺麗です) マーベルの映画にハマっている家族のリクエストで購入しました。楽しんでいるみたいです。

High Quality Hardcover
Wie schon gesagt, ist dieses Hardcover Buch von sehr hoher Qualität. Das Papiercover hat eine Gummiartige Beschichtung, einen Glanzeffekt für das Artwork und der Titel ist Hervorgehoben. Das Buch selber ist in einem Einfachen Grün gehalten wobei der Titel sich nur auf dem Buchrücken in Gelb befindet. Die jeweiligen Endseiten sind Schwarz und liefern damit einen schönen Kontrast. Dieses Hardcover wurde auch wirklich gebunden anstatt nur wie bei einem Taschen Buch nur geklebt zu werden( es gibt Heutzutage sehr viele Hardcover, welche nur ein Taschenbuch sind, auf das ein Hardcover geklebt wurde, hier in Bild 5 ein Vergleich mit einem Warrior Cats Buch). Auch schön ist der unebene Schnitt der Seiten, welche den Look vervollständigen. Leider kam ich noch nicht dazu, das Buch Zu lesen, kann also nichts zu der Story selbst sagen

Hartstikke slecht!
Wat een lef dat ze dit boek zo durven te leveren! De bladzijdes zijn zo slecht gesneden dat je het gewoon niet op je boekenplank wil zetten. Wat belachelijk!!!

Great prequel to the MCU. Couldn’t put it down!
I’m a huge MCU fan - I don’t know any of the comics - and I ADORED this book. Exactly what everyone else said. The characterization and the dialogue were both incredible, and the storyline was so engaging I couldn’t put it down. Wish I had more!
