The Norse Myths
Description
With black-and-white drawings throughout, here are thirty-two classic myths
that bring the pre-Christian Scandinavian world to life and bear witness to
the courage, passion, and boundless spirit that were hallmarks of the Norse
world. Gods, humans, and monstrous beasts engage in prodigious drinking bouts,
contests of strength, greedy schemes for gold, and lusty encounters. Included
are tales of Odin, the wisest and most fearsome of all the gods; Thor, the
thundering powerhouse; and the exquisite mafic-wielding Freyja. Read more
