I think Magnus Chase series was only served as a fanservice rather than actual books and it was served as political statements. It's nothing to do with Norse mythology. It had none interesting or creative plot and story, it was formulaic and predictable. And the villains, again, suck. Making Loki as villain was sooo cliche and stereotyped, as I saw this thing many many times. But at least if you made Loki as a villain, do it  in the right way. He had no interesting and impresive characterization, which, it is complete dumb because of it had nothing to do with Loki in the Norse myths. You know, in the end of the day, i think i give to Caligula a crown, for being a (somehow) nice villain.
