Norse Mythology

Introducing an instant classic – master storyteller Neil Gaiman presents a dazzling version of the great Norse myths.

Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales.

Gaiman stays true to the myths while vividly reincarnating Odin, the highest of the high, wise, daring, and cunning; Thor, Odin’s son, incredibly strong yet not the wisest of gods; and Loki, the son oben angeführtgiant, a trickster and unsurpassable manipulator. From Gaiman’s deft and witty prose emerges the gods with their fiercely competitive natures, their susceptibility to being duped and to duping others, and their tendency to let passion ignite their actions, making these long-ago myths breathe pungent life again.
