Mythology is more than a set of stories told to children but a reflection of the culture and beliefs of
the people, no matter if we talk about Greece, the Roman Empire, Japan or African cultures
It is a matter of fact that all cultures have their own explanation of natural fenomena and even the origin of the world and how will be the end of the world. This compilation of norse myths show us the way people in northern Europe thought.
From the begginig of the world to the Rangarok (the final battle in wich the gods will die and the world will be destroyed) we can read some delicious stories that contain the nordic people beliefs.
Neil Gaiman brings us some stories that explain the way gods in Asgard struggled to maintain their sovereignity above the rest of creatures, good or evil.
