Norse Mythology
by Neil Gaiman
⚔️ THE LEGENDS OF ASGARD REBORN
A bravura rendition of the primeval Norse gods, from their genesis to the cataclysm of Ragnarok.
Extended Synopsis
In Norse Mythology, masterful storyteller Neil Gaiman breathes pungent, renewed life into the ancient tales that have long inspired his own fantastical fiction. Staying incredibly true to the original myths, Gaiman weaves a novelistic arc that captures the fiercely competitive natures, the manipulation, and the passionate exploits of the legendary pantheon across the Nine Worlds.
Readers will encounter Odin, the wise and cunning All-Father; Thor, his incredibly strong yet sometimes foolish son; and Loki, the unsurpassable manipulator and blood brother to Odin. Through Gaiman's deft and witty prose, these primeval stories transform from fragmented folklore into a cohesive, action-packed epic that delves into the origins of deities, dwarfs, and giants, culminating in the fiery twilight of the gods.
