I really struggled with this one, which I don‘t recall from the first time I read it. For a short book (199 pages with occasional illustrations) it took me a while to get through it.

Interesting stories of the Norse gods, culminating in Ragnarok. The ring cycle is pretty glossed over, and you can tell these stories have been sanitized (bedtime stories), but not bad.

Cinfhen An Irish author writes about Norse Gods... sounds like an opening line of a comedian‘s monologue 6y
ravenlee @cinfhen I did appreciate the humor of this choice. I thought, because it was a reread, it‘s be a pretty easy read, but I really struggled with it. Think I‘m going to try Gaiman‘s Norse Mythology soon for contrast. 6y
