Maddy Smith has always been an outsider. Born with a rusty-coloured rune on her hand - what the villagers call a ruinmark - she is scarred by this symbol of the old gods, a sign of magic.And everyone knows that magic is dangerous. Except for Maddy, who actually thinks it's rather fun. Until now. For suddenly her friend One-Eye, a rascally Outlander, wants her to open Red Horse Hill and descend into World Below - a world filled with goblins and far worse - to retrieve a relic of the old gods...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A novel by Joanne Harris, Runemarks is the story of Maddy Smith, a fourteen year old girl who is sent on a quest to retrieve an artifact of the old gods called the Whisperer.A sequel, Runelights has been released, set three years after the original book; a prequel, The Gospel of Loki, was released in February 2014, detailing the "Lokabrenna" that Runemarks and Runelights quote.

Embarrassing Nickname: Jormungand seems a little irritated when Loki calls him "Jorgi" for short.

Apocalypse Wow
 Runemarks / int_91e8cd03
comment
Apocalypse Wow: As soon as Jormungand starts tearing apart the neverworld, there's splashes of this. It never quite takes out the whole universe, but it came pretty close and was more impressive than most portrayals of Armageddon.

The Ace
 Runemarks / int_b5b4b077
comment
The Ace: Skadi. In addition to being good at everything besides controlling her temper, even things she doesn't actually like, her rune, Isa or |, has no reversed position. This means she's lost none of her magical oomph.

Fantasy Kitchen Sink
 Runemarks / int_e1ff8ff6
comment
Fantasy Kitchen Sink: Much like Norse Mythology itself, with numerous mythologies referenced and indicated to be coexisting. (Hel, for example, tried to induce Balder to stay with her in the land of the dead by feeding him her food, having heard of a previous ruler who pulled that trick with pomegranates.)

comment
Exact Words: How Loki got out of having his head cut off when he offered it in a bet with the dwarfs and lost. He claimed that he had never mentioned his neck in the bet and, since they couldn't get his head without harming his neck, he kept his head on the technicality. However, he got his lips sewn together for his trouble.
