Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

Description

Gaiman stays true to the myths in envisioning the major Norse pantheon: Odin, the highest of the high, wise, daring, and cunning; Thor, Odin’s son, incredibly strong yet not he wisest of gods; and Loki-son of a giant-blood brother to Odin and a trickster and manipulator.  Through Gaiman’s deft and witty prose these gods emerge 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 ancient myths breathe life again.  Paperback
