Taken in isolation, it is as well written and mildly comical as Gaiman's other works, but within the context of it being a retelling of the Norse myths, it just missed the mark on so many points for me.
As example:

I had heard the audio book before, read by none other than Neil Gaiman himself, but the physical copy was just as wonderful to get through.
