Nameless Queen is a heartwarming and cozy reinterpretation over the Norse myth of Hel, queen of the underworld, a short story part of The Prophecies of Ragnarok series, written by Marie Sinadjan (co-authored with Meri Benson). After being stripped of her privileges, Hel is sent to the underworld, where she will have to learn what really means to be a queen, to be a leader.

Marie manages to write a story that is really different from your usual Norse myth, creating a less dark variant of those, while sending a different image of Loki's daughter, and how she really becomes a leader of those in the Helheim, those souls deemed unworthy for the Valhalla; but Hel, with the help of her assistant, will manage to create a place where those can feel as at home. When the Ragnarok is coming, she will be followed by those souls, kindness having its reward.

A really different story, short but great; if you want to read a Norse inspired series with a different twist, The Prophecies of Ragnarok is a great choice. And if you are in doubt, those short stories are a great way to test your taste.
