Norse Mythology

3.5 stars, really. There were times I laughed out loud, for sure. And I enjoyed learning more about a mythology I'm not very familiar with. I liked the story about Fenrir the a lot - partly because Neil Gaiman does a great voice for him. But at the same time, similar story elements recur constantly, and listening to this straight through became a little boring at times.

I feel like the best way to read this would be to read it aloud, a bit at a time, with a child. I guess it's not unexpected that myths would show to their best advantage when being told at bedtime as individual stories with a recognizable cast of characters.
