Undoubtedly Norse myths and tales have exercised a deep influence upon our customs, laws and English literature. Jennie Hall’s short stories are entertaining and introduce Scandinavian society in the Viking era: mentalities, beliefs (myths, sacrifices, funeral customs), daily life (habitat, food, clothing).The first part entitled In Norway focuses on the figure of King Harald: his childhood, his conquest of all Norway, his marriage to Gyda… The second part West-Over-Seas is dedicated to the navigation and discoveries of the Vikings.
