Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR

A can't-live-without guide for guests of the Hotel Valhalla, this volume contains facts about the Norse gods as well as other characters and creatures you might encounter if you are fortunate enough to be chosen as one of Odin’s brave warriors.

So you've made it to Valhalla. Now what?

This “who’s who” guide to the gods, goddesses, and other important figures of Norse mythology was commissioned by Helgi, who, after more than a millennium as manager of Hotel Valhalla, became fed up with answering the same questions from newly deceased heroes at check-in.

The profiles provide essential stats, interviews, and personal reflections so you can identify the gods and avoid those awkward introductions. Handy facts about other beings round out this go-to tome. You’ll never see Ratatosk as a cute little rodent or confuse a dwarf with an elf ever again!

Ich habe das Buch gelesen bevor ich zum zweiten Teil der Magnus Chase Trilogie gegriffen habe und ich fand es doch echt nützlich mein Wissen über diese Welt (oder besser Welten) und die nordische Mythologie etwas aufgefrischt zu haben. Grundsätzlich findet sich darin nicht, was man wirklich wissen muss um die Magnus Chase Bücher zu verstehen, aber durch Rick Riordans typischem Humor macht es echt total Spass dieses kleine Büchlein zu lesen und wenn man z.B. mal wieder nicht mehr weiss in welcher der neun Welten die Elfen leben kann man das hier praktisch nachschauen. 3,5*

I expected more. I thought it’d be like a real guide, talking more about the Gods, mythical beings and fantastic creatures. I didn’t like the interviews at all, or maybe I just missed Magnus as the narrator. Didn’t really enjoy it but I’d feel bad giving Riordan a 1 star rating so 2 stars it is.
