D'Aulaires' Book of Norse Myths by Ingri d'Aulaire, Edgar Parin d'Aulaire

4.0

I saw this on my friend's bookshelf and read it in a hammock over a long weekend. My god, what a delight. The weird and beautiful illustrations. The amused writing style. And most of all, just how freakin' bizarre Norse mythology is. I mean, knowledge exists because a bunch of gods spit berry juice into a vat and then asked the spit questions. Come on. Also, Valhalla is a wonderfully fucked-up place.
