This book is so many things, it's heartbreaking, heartwarming, thought-provoking, and eye-opening, all while being witty, funny, and absolutely enjoyable. I am left speechless with chills. My respect to Trevor and his mom.

Great job on Neil Gaiman's end, as expected. I didn't know much about Norse Mythology before this, and I'm glad I picked it up. It was an enjoyable experience and I feel like watching Thor movies in a new light. I think I'm still partial to Greek and Egyptian mythology, however, but that's just a preference.

I really enjoyed this book. It's not a light listen by any means but it's both interesting and informative. The author basically takes you from the big bang to the end of humanity, cruising through biology, history, zoology, sociology, economics, and politics in a way that doesn't get boring or dull. His language is engaging and makes everything interesting.
