| 2. |  | The Saga of the Volsungs
from Neeland Media LLC
Price: $4.79
Customer Review:
A very synthesized telling of the Sigurd myth, seen through the lens of an Icelandic telling. There is a lot more myth to this tale than, say, some of the Eddas or the Kalevala, which incorporate much more lore. While Siguard is still the main focus of the saga, there is much more done to... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $14.96
Customer Review:
The Icelandic sagas are a magnificent and still underrated landmark of medieval literature. They are unadorned, realistic prose narratives from an age that is otherwise best known for its religious and baroque tendencies; they are concise where most medieval literature is painfully diffuse; they... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Neeland Media LLC
Price: $5.59
Customer Review:
Njall's Saga is generally regarded as the greatest of the Icelandic sagas. It tells the story of feuding women who sow seeds of nearly total destruction in two families. It is a story of tragedy and heroism, of bravery and death, and above all of loss.

When I was a kid, my dad read me the most fantastic stories of the gods of the norse. I have continued to learn what I can ever since, but until now had not found a good introduction for my own children.

from Villard
Price: $19.75
Customer Review:
A beautiful book combining stunning photography with an in-depth historical, literary, and cultural examination of Iceland. This book manages to be heavy on both text and photographs.
Recommended for those interested in Iceland, but it is not a travel guide-type book. | 4.5 / 5.0
