The most overrated mythology.
>>9196520
Greek mythology is the most overrated mythology. Norse Mythology is just too often poorly represented in popular media.
I'm reading at the moment, I can't decide whether it was meant to be an entry level anthology for adults, or if it's a book for children.

Neil Gaiman is good at writing. This book is enjoyable. This book is easy to read. It's something to just sit down and enjoy without having to think too hard.
Is there anything similar for Germanic/Central European myths?
>>9196575
This. Norse mythology is actually really interesting, and I'm a massive Norse-hater. It's just badly done in literally everything ever.
Greek mythology is kinda the opposite. It's mediocre but it's been used in a lot of good things.
Jewish mythology is the best though.

Also, If you find Norse stuff interesting, you might like to look into William Morris. He was an Old Norse translator and fantasy author from the 1870s-90s. A lot of his stuff has Norse influence and it is pretty good.

Yeah he's definitely the kind of person Norseaboos should check out. Or just general /sff/aggots too. His stuff isn't always VIKINGS ARR but you can see its influence.
He also designed my granny's wallpaper.
