Publisher Description
A full-cast dramatisation of Neil Gaiman's magical retellings of the Norse myths, inviting us into a world of gods and monsters, tricks and trust, fiery endings and new beginnings
Winner of The London Book Fair CAMEO Award 2020 for Book to Audio adaptation.
'And the game begins anew…'
Meet the trickster god Loki and his astonishing children – the giant wolf Fenrir, Jormungundr the snake that encircles the world, and Hel, the little girl who grows up to be Queen of the dead. Here, too, is Odin the all-father, who sacrificed his eye to see the future; Thor the thunderer, who defends Asgard with his fearsome strength and mighty hammer; and Freya the understandably angry, most beautiful of the gods and always being gambled for by unwanted suitors.
From the beginning of the universe in fire and ice, to the very end of the world, Ragnarok, these enthralling tales of gods, goddesses, dwarves and giants bring the ancient myths to vigorous life.
Diana Rigg, Derek Jacobi, Colin Morgan, Natalie Dormer and Neil Gaiman himself are among the stellar cast in these spellbinding stories of old betrayals – and new hope.
Customer Reviews
Short, but enjoyable
Much shorter than the original book, but the quality of production makes up for it.
WTF!
I was expecting the audio book of Neil Gaiman’s book. This is a radio play of a VERY abridged version. It is good for what it is, but it’s not the audio book.
You definitely should listen to all of it
Very good voice actors and great story, love how Odin used Mimir’s skull as the sky, eye sockets as the sun and moon. And idog don’t assume from a game or anything really.
