Norse Mythology Illustrated
Norse Mythology Illustrated
Multi-award-winning, globally bestselling author Neil Gaiman’s riveting retellings of the classic Norse myths, now reinvented with epic, full-colour illustrations by Levi Pinfold. A gift from the gods of story.
Ancient myths burst into thrilling, visceral life in Neil Gaiman’s irresistible Norse Mythology, already a modern classic and a massive bestseller around the world. In this brand-new edition, Levi Pinfold brings his own spectacular illustrative imagination to the world of gods, frost giants, magic and betrayal, uniting two awesome talents in one glorious book.
From the dawn of the world to the twilight of the gods, this is the most dazzling journey through the Norse myths, with Odin the all-father and his mighty son Thor, whose hammer Mjollnir makes the mountain giants tremble, and Loki, wily and handsome, impossible to trust. Containing the full text of the original book and a feast of colour art, it’s perfect for readers of any age – as ancient as the mountains or as young as Loki’s many offspring.
‘The halls of Valhalla have been crying out for Gaiman to tell their stories to a new audience’ – Natalie Haynes, Observer
‘Brilliant. Somehow he brings us close to this world of mountains and cataracts, monsters and elves’ – Sunday Times Book of the Week

About the Author
Neil Gaiman has written highly acclaimed books for children and adults and is the first author to have won the Carnegie and Newbery Medals for the same work – The Graveyard Book. Several of his works have been adapted for film and television, including the breakaway hit Amazon Prime series Good Omens, as well as American Gods, Coraline and The Sandman, which was based on his multimillion-selling graphic-novel series.
Levi Pinfold has been drawing from his imagination for as long as he can remember. He has published many acclaimed books and is a winner of the prestigious CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal. Born in the Forest of Dean, he has somehow found himself living in Queensland, Australia. He likes paintings, books, music and some cats.
