** Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman:**
Status? : Finished
My overall rating of the book : 10/10
How does this book relate to my magickal practice?: It helped me to understand the Norse gods and understand Mythology more which is a part of my craft. I like to gain knowledge just like Odin. And i hav ebeen drawn to Norse Mythology for a long time but never knew about this book.
My personal thoughts/opinions:
I highly recommend listening to this book the author reads the book and he is amazing and each character has different voice which made it very visual and son enjoyable for me.
He read both of the Eddas to create this book.
If I read anymore of his books i will be listening to them as well.
I enjoyed listening to it while on road trip on the solstice and then was qble to finish it in a couple of weeks.
I had to finish it because when i stopped in the middle i swear that Loki would get mad and then I would get lost. @tracyS i though of you when this happed.
An interesting quote from the book: " He has two ravens, whom he calls Huginn and Muninn, which mean “thought” and “memory.” These birds fly back and forth across the world, seeking news and bringing Odin all the knowledge of things. They perch on his shoulders and whisper into his ears."
And the game begins anew."
I love how human the Norse gods are and that the wholw story in the end talks about the cyle of death and rebirth.
All in all, would I recommend this book?: Yes
