This time you'll hear from the female characters in their own words. Meet Freyja, the enchanting goddess who forges a peace treaty between the Aesir and Vanir and brings magic and harmony to Asgard; ski through the mountains with Skadi on her quest for vengeance after her father's death; and watch Loki, the shape-shifting trickster, recount the rescue of Thor's hammer while disguised as a maid in this illustrated treasure trove of eight tales.
