The Norse Myths: A Guide to the Gods and Heroes by Carolyne Larrington

5.0

I knew very little about Norse mythology beforehand, and I thought this book was an excellent introduction. It gave me a good overview of the characters and myths, and it left me intrigued enough to go looking for more.
The book is gorgeous with nice illustrative pictures, and very readable. Maybe the only issue is that there are a lot of names to keep track of, especially in the sections about heroes. Otherwise I thought it was solid.
