    I highly recommend the book for fans of Scandinavian Mythology as it contains everything inside. However, not in Greek if possible. The names and terminology are written in Greek and I believe they should be written in Latin characters. If there is a reissue that corrects this, the Greek edition will not be lacking in any way.

    If you like Norwegian mythology, I highly recommend this book. It presents the most famous Norwegian myths in a very nice narrative. The stories are given in a logical order, so that information you receive from one can be used in the next.

    It is a very nice book. Inside are written the most famous stories with the gods of Scandinavian mythology, such as Thor, Odin, and Loki. But all these gods have the forms that were given to them in Scandinavian mythology and not as we know them from Marvel comics. The author, this enchanting author, Neil Gaiman, has also written the reason why he wrote all these fantastic stories of the gods, and I did not expect anything less from him. It is amazing and this book can show it to us. If you like stories with gods, adventure, and the antics of the irresistible gods of Scandinavia, read it. I highly recommend it!
