About the book

The Norse Myths brings together the great legends of the Scandinavian gods and heroes, including Odin, Thor, Loki, Freyja and the inhabitants of Asgard. These stories tell of creation, magical weapons, giants, monsters and heroic quests, ultimately leading toward Ragnarök, the destruction and renewal of the world. Powerful, imaginative and often darkly humorous, Norse mythology has had an enormous influence on European literature, folklore and modern fantasy.
