Publisher Description
Padraic Colum's rich, lyrical style captures the magic and mysticism of the Norse myths with tales of the gods and goddesses who lived in the Northern Utopia of Asgard before the dawn of man.
Here are the matchless tales of All-Father Odin, who crosses the Rainbow Bridge to walk among men in Midgard and sacrifices his right eye to drink from the Well of Wisdom; of Thor, whose mighty hammer defends Asgard; of Loki, whose mischievous cunning leads him to treachery against the gods; of giants, dragons, dwarfs and Valkyries; and of the terrible last battle that destroyed their world.
