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.
