I hope you read Magnus Chase series by Rick Riordan. It is such a fun series based on Norse Mythology.Renee Pendergast wrote: ↑13 Oct 2023, 19:06 I think a very cool retelling of a myth/legend would be one about the Norse Gods, but NOT in a Marvel Capacity. I would especially like one about Loki - the trickster god, because he is such an interesting entity in Norse mythology.
What are some other myths or legends you'd like to see with a modern retelling?

I am fascinated by Egyptian mythology. Hope you have read Kane Chronicles by Rick Riordan. I learned a lot about Egyptian gods through that series.Samantha Green Tolson wrote: ↑17 Oct 2023, 21:15 I absolutely loved this version on Nimue! The way Sullivan merges the old ways with the new is just amazing.
I would personally love to see a modern take on Egyptian mythology. There are so many different great myths that it could become a fantastic series. Or even a modern take on Cleopatra. Ancient Egyptian history is full of magic and mysteries. Someone could make a killing writing a series about the gods and goddess!
