Neil Gaiman's 2017 book Norse Mythology retells Norse myths in a novelistic format, starting with the creation of the nine worlds and ending with Ragnarok, the gods' twilight. The stories range in length from a few pages to around 25 pages, and feature gods like Odin, Thor, and Loki. Gaiman stays faithful to the myths while bringing characters like the wise and cunning Odin, the strong but not-so-wise Thor, and the trickster Loki to life.
