About This Item
The author, long inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction, presents a bravura rendition of the Norse gods and their world, from their origin through their upheaval in Ragnarok. In this book, Gaiman stays true to the myths in envisioning the major Norse pantheon and fashions them into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the nine worlds and delves into the exploits of deities, dwarfs, and giants. Through his deft and witty prose, these gods emerge with their fiercely competitive natures, their susceptibility to being duped and to duping others, and their tendency to let passion ignite their actions, making these long-ago myths breathe pungent life again.
