If you’ve ever found yourself intrigued by Thor’s hammer, Loki’s cunning, or Odin’s wisdom, Legends of Norse Mythology feels like a backstage pass into the incredible world behind these iconic figures. This book isn’t just a retelling of old myths—it’s an invitation to truly understand the rich history and culture of the Vikings who brought these gods to life.
As someone who thought they “knew” Norse mythology from movies and TV shows, this book completely changed my perspective. It’s packed with insights that make you appreciate the depth and complexity of these stories—and their influence on modern pop culture. Plus, there’s a pronunciation guide (finally!) that makes those tricky Norse names less intimidating.
Whether you’re a history buff, a mythology lover, or just someone who enjoys a good story, this book feels like an adventure. It’s immersive, engaging, and surprisingly personal—it left me feeling like I’d journeyed through the Norse cosmos myself. Highly recommend for anyone looking to dive deeper into this fascinating world.

Beyond what I knew from movies
I love learning new things, and Norse mythology was on my list. I have seen all the movies that depict what I thought was true mythology, but this book puts all those to shame. The two-book bundle is very well written, and the two books complement each other perfectly. It is very obvious this author is very knowledgeable in this subject and is passionate about teaching it.
