  goddesses went to war. The elves, the giants, and the gods and goddesses

  When a snowy winter descends upon modern-day San Francisco in June, Mist’s
  quiet existence starts to feel all too familiar. In quick succession, Mist is
  attacked by a frost giant in a public park and runs into an elf disguised as a
  homeless person on the streets…and then the man Mist believed was her mortal
  boyfriend reveals himself to be the trickster god, Loki, alive and well after
  all these years.

  access to a staff that once belonged to the great god Odin. Mist is certain of
