Norse Mythology: Tales of Norse Gods, Heroes, Beliefs, Rituals & the Viking Legacy. Paperback – December 1, 2017

I see a lot of people hate in this book and get it. I however read the reviews and knew what I was ordering. The book gives a brief but informative view of Viking culture. For the price it can’t be beat. There are some spelling and grammatical errors, which for me to notice means they are pretty glaring lol. I would recommend this book to someone interested in first learning about Vikings. It’s definitely a good book for later year elementary kid and middle schoolers.

Packs a lot of the info anyone interested in Norse mythology would be wanting to read. Has quite a few spelling and grammatical mistakes

For someone who is a big Vikings fan, they will love this! It’s awesome, especially for someone who likes to read!

It's a good book for a introduction to Norse mythology. Simple and clear,it is very easy to understand,although it could have a few more pages to specify some things here and there,but hey,it's just my opinion!!

Dale Hansen does a great job of succinctly introducing us to the many different aspects of Medieval Viking culture. I was expecting a longer book, but that's what I get for not checking the page count first! Still, I felt most of the subjects could have used more detail. I found myself constantly writing down questions to research later because the book moves so quickly. It is great for an introduction or quick-reference; otherwise, I have trouble deciding on a purpose for something so short. Clearly, this was well researched, so why not go the extra mile and give readers more to chew on? This was the reason I could not give 5 stars. However, I found the content fascinating and it should prove a great starting point for fueling anyone's hunger for immersion in Viking lore.

The book came and was as expected. It was thinner than I expected and skimming through the pages, it gives a brief paragraph or two on the subject. For the price of the book it is worth it to buy the book

Great into into Norse Mythology. My only minor criticism were some grammar/spelling errors and I wanted more "tales" from the era. Overall, it was a great introduction and didn't take long to get though which was nice.

This has the potential to be a great primer on Norse Mythology. As such, it's not quite there yet. The book definitely needs an editor to go though it, mostly for grammar and some misspellings.At times, the author could definitely add more information. When talking about Odin's eight legged horse, he mentions that the horse is Loki's offspring. He doesn't mention that the horses name is Sleipnir.More information and an pass by an experienced editor would make this a wonderful primer on Nose Myth.

This book isn't too informative, it kind of briefly skims through alot of different topics and I've noticed a few spelling/printing errors.

Much thinner book than expected. God basic info but just a quick skin over.

Perfect way to spend a quiet evening.

Easy to navigate, sets out the history in a clear and easy to read way!

Rather a skinny book. I expected more to be written about the Aesir and Vanir and the norse myths. Would recommened for someone who just wants a rough idea on the Norse gods.
