"With his customary close and spirited take on original sources, O'Connor sets his portrait within a frame story that has Odin's beefiest son--portrayed as a veritable mountain of muscle--relating several renowned exploits in order to earn passage from a cloaked ferryman at a river." --Kirkus, starred review
