A Viking's Delight
The author spent much time making certain each portion was 1) accurate and 2) understandable to all readers. Although Bullfinch's Mythology is most likely the book all other mythology tomes are graded by, this one deserves to be very near the top. Good job and a book that is enjoyable to read.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of names, not a ton of info
The guy (a novelist he says) wrote this book like I would a grocery list. It was mostly a list of names with a few basic outlines. Also, not a lot of info on some subjects I thought were key. I was most interested in the Viking version of the end if days and this was covered in about half a page. The god Hel didn't even have a description. I'm ordering a few more books...
