News: November updates

Date: 2011, 27 November

After seeing the movie "Thor", which i really liked by the way, i wanted to learn more on Norse mythology. One book i came across was the "The Prose Edda", which contains very interesting sources on Norse mythology and their Gods.

Another one however was called the "Heimskringla", written by Snorri Sturlson. It is a massive book containing stories of the kings and other important people in and around Norway. It hasn't got much to do with mythology, but rather the period AFTER the old Norse religion. Now after months of work you can find it here:

I really misjudged it's size, it's one of biggest books you can find here a.t.m. Every chapter is divided in many chapters each containing a seperate story. Some stories are about the same character. Hope you enjoy!
