Confession time

Ive never read any neil gaiman lmao

Hes always recommended and my favorite writers praise him. But i cant get invested in single novels, espescially when i dont know what they are about in the first place. I need at least a trilogy.

That said ill probably read his norse gods books. But again im a history guy and when i want to learn about mythology or even a culture i try and find writings from as close to the source as possible. So while i hear gaimans book is great i feel like i should learn about norse mythology prior to reading a modern persons rendition of it. The problem ARISES with it all being hearsay anyways tho because vikings were illiterate rune drawing dummies who dont have a history of their own, they exist because people recorded their encounters with them knahmsaying

Ill read something i guess
