A cursed treasure hoard. A vengeful dragon. A quest for true love.

Trickster God Loki is on the hunt for the perfect ring to bring to the betrothal of his beloved. The problem? His beloved Sigyn is being betrothed to someone else, and the ring - the cursed Andvaranaut, vital to Loki’s plans to thwart the engagement - is currently in the possession of a dragon.

And even if he does manage to avoid getting devoured, he still has to crash a party filled with giants and gods before he can ride off into the sunset with Sigyn…


The Gold of Andvari is a short story of fantasy and adventure, inspired by Norse myths.
 
“And if you think to take a drink,
From Mímisbrunnr, wait and think;
For blood spilled here will cost you dear;
The Middle Realm lies very near.”

When Prince Býleistr finds a human in the forest, he isn’t certain of exactly what he should do with her. It’s been many centuries since any mortals have stumbled across the Realm of Giants, and Hrothwyn of Miðgarðr isn’t at all what he expected. With his plans to keep Wynn as a pet thwarted by members of his father’s war-thirsty court, who believe that a human sacrifice might be just what they need to open a doorway to the mortal realm, Býleistr decides that the only way to keep the intriguing little captive alive is to return her to her realm.

But Miðgarðr is a much more complicated world than Býleistr has been led to believe.

A dark force sweeps through the mortal realm, leaving burned villages in its wake. Wynn is determined to see an end to the cruel warlord behind the devastation, and if Býleistr hopes to ever find a way back to his own world, he has no choice but to join her on her quest.
