You’ll love this grim box set because it retells classic Norse myths in a whole new way. Get it now.

The poems of the Poetic Edda have waited a long time for a modern English translation that would do them justice. Here it is at last (Odin be praised!) and well worth the wait. These amazing texts from a 13th-century Icelandic manuscript are of huge historical, mythological, and literary importance, containing the lion's share of information that survives today about the gods and heroes of pre-Christian Scandinavians, their unique vision of the beginning and end of the world, etc.

It was looking like Lady Luck had quite a grudge against him. In fact, at this point merely crashing the multi-billion-dollar ship he had helped design would have felt like winning the lottery compared to his current dilemma. If only he were so lucky. Things had started off all right - that is, until a freak wormhole unexpectedly swallowed his ship, leaving him stranded on an unknown planet far, far from home.

Publisher's Summary
What if an ancient god escaped his fate and history was thrown to the wolves?
Churchwarden Michaels thought it was just a run-of-the-mill crazy old man who stood in the graveyard, hellbent on studying the 1,000-year-old Viking memorial there. But when things start changing and outright disappearing, Michaels realizes there is more to this old man than meets the eye. Now, Michaels finds himself swept up in an ancient god’s quest to escape his destiny by reworking reality, putting history - and to Michaels’s dismay, Christianity itself - to the Viking sword. In this new Vikingverse novel, storied heroes of mankind emerge in new and brutal guises drawn from the sagas:
A young Norse prince plots to shatter empires and claim the heavens....
A scholar exiled to the frontier braves the dangers of the New World, only to find those “new worlds” are greater than he imagined....
A captured Jötunn plants the dreams of freedom during a worlds-spanning war....
A bold empress discovers there is a price for immortality, one her ancestors have come to collect....
With the timelines stretched to breaking point, it’s up to Churchwarden Michaels to save reality as we know it....

I didn't like this book at all! I had a hard time following what was going on and it didn't hold my interest. I tried to stick with it but just couldn't finish it. I'm bummed because I really wanted to like it.
