Introducing an instant classic--master storyteller Neil Gaiman presents a dazzling version of the great Norse myths.

Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people. Gaiman stays true to the myths while vividly reincarnating Odin, the highest of the high, wise, daring, and cunning; Thor, Odin’s son, incredibly strong yet not the wisest of gods; and Loki, the son of a giant, a trickster and unsurpassable manipulator. From Gaiman’s deft and witty prose emerges the gods with their fiercely competitive natures, their susceptibility to being duped and to dupe others, and their tendency to let passion ignite their actions, making these long-ago myths breathe pungent life again.

This audiobook is great! The chosen myths are very interesting and quite entertaining. The audio is clear and well performed by the author himself (something I do appreciate). I definitely recommend it.

I have always had a great interest in Norse Mythology and this book was the first book I have read on this subject. Reading "Norse Mythology" made me want to read even more on the...well...Norse Mythology.

Apart from that, what made reading this book even more interesting is having the audiobook along with it. Neil Gaiman's passion and enthusiasm in narrating this book simply makes it better!

As for the title of my review...
I chose it because Týr deserves all the respect and admiration one could give, and thus, I entitled my review as so.
