- I Bring the Fire Part I (A Loki Story)
About I Bring the Fire Part I (A Loki Story):Amy Lewis is on her way to her grandmother’s house. She’s being pursued by a very bad wolf.
Galaxies away Loki is waking up in a prison cell, strangely without a hangover, and with no idea what he’s done wrong–this time anyway. But he does know Thor is hiding something, Odin is up to something wicked, and a new magic is rising.
In this tale that is equal parts “Another Fine Myth,” “American Gods,” and “Once Upon a Time,” a very nice midwestern girl and a jaded, still very mischievous Loki must join forces to outwit gods, dinosaur riding elves, magic sniffing cats, and nosy neighbors. If Loki can remember exactly what he’s forgotten and Amy can convince him not to be too distracted by Earthly gadgets, her breasts, or three day benders, they just might pull it off.
This first installment of “I Bring the Fire” is for anyone who suspects chaos and mischief makers might have their own redeeming qualities, and anyone who just wants a good fantasy romp through modern Earth, ancient Asgard, and beyond!

I Bring the Fire: Part I Wolves (FREE eBOOK!)
Monsters: I Bring the Fire Part II
Chaos: I Bring the Fire Part III

C. Gockel got her start writing fanfiction, and she is not ashamed! Much. She received emails, messages and reviews from her fans telling her she should ‘do this professionally’. She didn’t; because she is a coward and life as a digital designer, copywriter and coder is more dependable. But in the end, her husband’s nagging wore her down: “You could be the next ’50 Shades of Gray’ and I could retire!” Unfortunately, the author isn’t much for writing smut. She is sad about this; she’d love for her husband to be able to retire and just work for her so she could nag him.At the moment, Ms. Gockel is working on the next installment of “I Bring the Fire”.
