kandicez 's review for:
Odd and the Frost Giants
by Neil Gaiman
I listened to Neil read this, so the experience was certainly more beautiful than reading it on the page. He seems to be obsessed with Norse mythology, and what better time in popular culture than now? Audiences wait for the next Marvel movie featuring Thor and Loki like starving children, so I imagine these few books that deal with that, are appetizers and palette cleansers.
I admit to never having had much interest in the Norse side of things, despite devouring anything Roman or Greek I could get my grubby hands on for years, but in Neil's hands the Norse stuff becomes just as interesting. He has this subtle humor, and yet perfectly place words, paragraphs and chapters devoted to giving us the lore without the boring bits.
