One foot in ice and one in fire

The glacier under which Loki lies bound is Vatnajökull, the lake-glacier. This is not the glacier whose recent volcanic eruption has closed airspace in much of northern Europe on account of the fallout ash turns to glass in jet engines. But given the massive international chaos Eyjafjallajökull is generating, what do you bet Loptr takes credit for it anyway?

And aren't you just ravenous for a midnight feast?

And the mail just arrived, bringing copies of Simon Logan's Katja from the Punk Band, Gemma Files' A Book of Tongues, and the sea-blue, beautifully bound and shell-scattered Chanteys for the Fisherangels.

Books, w00t!
