Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Not what I was expecting.
I love mythology and I've been learning the stories of many cultures since I learned to read. This particular book is one I should have bought on paper and read for myself. I really didn't for the narrator's performance. It seemed flat and even hurried. All these beautiful stories brought down from ages past and it's as though he's reading it at me instead of to me. Otherwise I'd say this book is alright if you wanted the abridged version of Roman mythology.

I loved to learn about the Gods
A extremely entertaining prelude for our trip to Italy. Highly recommend this as a refresher to Roman mythology, and told better than I ever remember hearing before.
