Norse Mythology by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really didn't expect to enjoy this all that much when I first started it, despite being curious about Norse Gods (it was the only compendium of Norse mythology I could find at the moment), but I'm very glad I stuck with this book. In many ways, Neil Gaiman is the perfect person to retell these stories. His style is quite simple and very fairy-tale like, which is how these stories end up feeling.
It's also good to see how familiar names, like Odin, Thor and the Valkyries, all tie into each other.
