Illustrated in a striking folk art style, these thrilling tales of Scandinavian legend encompass broad comedy and heartbreaking tragedy, for readers and listeners of all ages. Told by folklorist Neil Philip, they relate the adventures of Odin, father of the gods; the rages of the thunder god Thor; the trials and tribulations of his half brother Loki, the trickster; and the good heart of Freya, goddess of fertility, magic, and war, who gathers the souls of warriors slain in battle.
