C. Gockel

C. Gockel writes fantasy and science fiction, building long-running series around mythic figures, altered worlds, and characters forced into uneasy alliances. Chaos is the third main volume of the I Bring the Fire sequence, also identified in edition records as I Bring the Fire Part III: Chaos. The series reworks Norse mythology in a contemporary setting, with Loki driving conflicts that cross divine and human worlds. This instalment completes the Cera story arc while continuing the consequences of the earlier volumes Wolves and Monsters. Audio editions were narrated by Barrie Kreinik, and bibliographic records consistently place the novel within Gockel’s Loki series rather than as an unrelated standalone. Chaos demonstrates the author’s characteristic combination of large mythological stakes with modern relationships and moral uncertainty. Elsewhere, Gockel’s catalogue moves from fantasy into science fiction through books such as Archangel Down and Starship Waking.
