Spoiler-free synopsis
An ancient force threatens the balance of the realms and draws Jane Foster into the centre of the conflict. Thor must protect both Asgard and Earth, turning to difficult alliances. The danger tests his family ties and the place he wants to occupy between the two worlds.
Jane goes from investigating strange phenomena to becoming involved in a problem she cannot explain through science alone. Around her, Thor's duties as a prince clash with his personal attachments. The adventure travels through fantastical settings and gives more space to the tension between his commitment to Asgard and the life he imagines on Earth.
