Sagas aus der Vorzeit – Band 2: Wikingersagas

Volume 2 of the Icelandic sagas is populated by the most peculiar creatures; above all, trolls disrupt the peace of the brave Vikings of ancient times – and their women, who transform from mere adornments and objects of desire into important advisors, lovers, and even war heroines, but also pose a danger. Time and again, the stories seem suspiciously familiar. No wonder, as this is precisely where Tolkien, George R.R. Martin, and others found their inspiration. Rudolf Simek and his team have now fully translated this original source into German for the first time. With brief introductions, a glossary, an index, and maps – for readers who want to know everything.
