Egerkrans re-tells the most exciting and imaginative sagas of the Norse mythology: From the creation myth in which the first giant Ymer is hacked to pieces by Odin and his brothers, to the gods' final destruction in Ragnarök. This is a gorgeously illustrated book in which gods, giants, dwarves, monsters and heroes are presented in all their glory. A book for those who already know and love these stories, as well as for those who have yet to discover Scandinavian mythology. A definitive work for readers of all ages. “It is a pleasure to be enchanted by the suggestive visualizations of Angerboda, Hel, Freya, Utgarda-Loki, Mimer and Surt." Dick Harrison, Svenska Dagbladet

Norse mythology, or Scandinavian mythology, is the body of mythology of the North Germanic people stemming from Norse paganism and continuing after the Christianization of Scandinavia and into the Scandinavian folklore of the modern period. Most of the knowledge used to create this book, is from the Icelandic historian and poet, Snorri Sturluson, who has written The Prose Edda around the year 1200. The Norse gods and goddesses were loved by the Vikings. The Vikings came mainly from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Faroe Island, and Greenland. People around the world have been fascinated and inspired by Norse Mythology for centuries. In the late 20th century, references to Norse Mythology became common in science fiction and fantasy literature, role-playing games, and eventually other cultural products such as Japanese animation and Hollywood Movies. Here is a selection of what you will learn: An introduction to Norse Mythology Cosmology including The World-Tree and Its Inhabitants The Norse Pantheon - The Gods and Goddesses (Thor, Loki Odin, etc) The Creation of the Universe The Fortification of Asgard Iduna's Apples Odin in Midgard Thor's Adventures Among the Giants The Curse of Gold The Death of Balder The End and the Beginning Learn more about Norse Mythology NOW and scroll up to the top of this page and BUY it Now!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Remarkable.… Gaiman has provided an enchanting contemporary interpretation of the Viking ethos.”—Lisa L. Hannett, Atlantic Neil Gaiman, 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 though their upheaval in Ragnarok. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman stays true to the myths in envisioning the major Norse pantheon: Odin, the highest of the high, wise, daring, and cunning; Thor, Odin’s son, incredibly strong yet not the wisest of gods; and Loki—son of a giant—blood brother to Odin and a trickster and unsurpassable manipulator. Gaiman fashions these primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds and delves into the exploits of deities, dwarfs, and giants. Through Gaiman’s 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norse Gods The Norse gods have enjoyed a rebirth in popular culture as movies, comics, and video games that tell their tales of courage and valor. But as we travel into the past, we discover the roots of lore that gave birth to these remarkable deities whose exploits continue to excite our imaginations, even centuries after the Vikings of yore were the terror of Europe. Inside you will read about... - Odin - Thor - Loki - Freya - Heimdall - And More! The Norse gods embodied bravery and deceit, loyalty and cruelty, cunning and wisdom. The leadership of one-eyed, scarred Odin was not without fault and the love of his wife Freya did not mean that she was a faithful spouse. Thor and Sif were a dynamic couple whose influence over nature was a testimony to their traits and talents. Loki, ever embroiled in mischief, often with deadly results, was constantly at odds with someone, always getting himself out of the predicaments that he had managed to get into.
