*I won the ebook version of this in a giveaway on LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review.

There's not much to say, really. This is just a short story about Loki and Thor and how it began with Thor dragging Loki out of bed and then turned out to be Thor following Loki like a puppy through this adventure with a band of Dwarves also known as a few of Loki's friends.
Basically, Thor wanted Loki to get out of bed and go outside and have fun, so he takes him someplace else to drink but instead Loki takes them somewhere else where they meet up with a group of Dwarves and go on a hunt. They end up killing two Gryphons, keeping a baby one, getting attacked and escaping and stealing horses and throughout there's a whole lot of action and it's great.
I liked it, yeah, but at the same time I just didn't love it. I feel like I couldn't connect and maybe also the fact that Loki didn't seem like Loki to me just made me not love it like I could have. I kind of have a problem. If I don't like the characters or I can't connect with them, then I tend to not enjoy the story as much as I otherwise would have.
Overall though, I enjoyed this short read and I would recommend it to anyone, really.

So, that's that, I guess. d:
