Great post, I've always been a bit obsessed by Norse mythology, you should try and read neil gaiman "Norse Mythology" ended up reading it to my wee five year old son (with a few modifications) and we both loved it.
Anyway really enjoyed the post.

Yes, that book is very good! It's a quick and easy read!
It really is and very easy to read, I did have to make some off the cuff updates for my wee son, but on the whole
I have read Neil Gaiman
s Norse Mythology, and as a person who have spend most of his life studying Viking history, i will say that Neil Gaimans best work by far is his stories about Sandman.But those stories really are amazing. :)
I would have to agree with you, I haven't read Sandman in a long time, think I might reread them, thanks for the comment.
hehe i actually have buy the entire Sandman serial 3 times now.
Because when i read it the first time, i thought it was so great that i gave them away to someone i knew would love it too.
But then, after some years i wanted to read it again, and then i had to buy it again.
And of course the same happen again, i got a visitor that had not heard about it, so i gave it away again.
And last year i wanted to read it even one more time, so i had to buy it again.. lol
This time i have learned, and will keep them, because i think that they are so great that i probably will enjoy reading them again 5 years from now.. lol
PS. you should read some of the things from Terry Pratchet too.
He was very much inspired by Sandmans world, and kind of copied it, but he added humor to the stories. (with Neil Gaiman`s blessing)
Thanks very much for that. I will see if I can find that book.
