I very much liked Gaiman’s latest book on Norse Mythology. It was like being a kid again and listening
to fairy tales or in this case, stories about Loki, Odin and Thor and other Norse
gods and goddesses. Loki is the scamp –
duping others and being duped. Odin the
father figure, highest of the high, wise, daring and also cunning. Thor, Odin’s son, incredibly strong and in
possession of a magic sword. Combine all
these with giants, dwarfs, caves and castles, a trip to hell and back and you
have storytelling at its best.
