'The halls of Valhalla have been crying out for Gaiman to tell their stories.' -- The Observer 'Beautifully told and a lot of fun.' -- Mail on Sunday 'Gaiman's voice is engaging; often quirkily humorous ...the narrative, always crisp and direct, combines an adult's insight with a childlike sense of wonder at the magic of it all.' -- The Spectator
