Magic Mischief Mayhem

Magic, Mischief, and Mayhem is the second quarterly anthology from House of Loki. Magic, Mischief and Mayhem is not only the title of this book but it is also the motto for everything we do at House of Loki. This book is filled with fairies, dragons, wizards, and witches. We have stories based on fantasy and folklore from around the world by writers from lots of different backgrounds. As soon as the authors saw the artwork for the cover by the amazing Greenspike, they were falling over themselves to tell the tales that it inspired. Within these pages, you will find crazy creatures, mythical monsters, and weird witches. You'll join characters that jump from the page and take you on amazing adventures.

Between childhood and adulthood lie the greatest adventures of wonder. The heroes and heroines of these seven stories embark on fantastical journeys of discovery and growth as they find out just who they are, what world they live in, and what their destinies are. Along the way, evil and not-so-evil obstacles stand in their way and magic, for better or worse, plays a major role in each of their adventures.

White, Roald Dahl, or E. Nesbit. Now the editors of the Adrenaline series have moved into a new genre with the same attention to great stories, great characters, and great writing that has made Adrenaline the most successful series of its kind. In addition to the above writers, Wizards draws upon a rich load of forgotten classics (without which there would be no Harry Potter) by such authors as Jane Yolen, George MacDonald, Frances Hodgson Burnett, A. Philippa Pearce, Nicholas Stuart Gray, John Bellairs, and Edward Eager.
