 reviewed Norse Mythology: A Guide to the Gods, Heroes, Rituals, and Beliefs on
This book is an encyclopedia of Norse mythology. It is heavy on the information of Gods and Heroes; however, the information provided in this book for Rituals and Beliefs is scarce, which is to be expected since there's little available for research other than what can be gleened from the Eddas and Sagas, along with anthropological evidence. I found this to be a decent book for quick information on the subject.
