Norse Myths & Legends: Tales of Heroes, Gods & Monsters by J.K. Jackson & Dr. Luke John Murphy (Flame Tree Collector's Editions)
From the legends of Odin, Thor, Loki, Freya and all the gods of Asgard come tales of "The Treasure of the Dwarf King," "Ragnarok" and many thrilling stories of the Vikings and their Norse gods fighting a constant battle with nature. The stark Nordic landscape, with its mountains and long nights, created a particularly robust mythology with profound contrasts and unforgettable heroes—great gods who leap from the films, streaming services and comics into great fiction and epic poetry. This fabulous collection offers all the main stories with an introduction to the characters and the lands that inspired them.
A beautiful edition with a new introduction to the origins of Thor and Loki, Odin and Freya, the gods and giants of the Vikings, this gorgeous collector's edition highlights the origins of modern fiction in myth and fable. The Flame Tree Collector's Editions present the foundations of speculative fiction—authors, myths and tales without which the imaginative literature of the twentieth century would not exist—bringing the best, most influential and most fascinating works into a striking and collectable library. Each volume features a new introduction and a glossary of terms.
