One of the 20th century's enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize-winning career. The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America.

Paradigm shift to the way I used to visualise Data
- By Jignesh Mistry on 30-07-20
Publisher's Summary
The great Norse myths are woven into the fabric of our storytelling - from Tolkien, Alan Garner and Rosemary Sutcliff to Game of Thrones and Marvel Comics. They are also an inspiration for Neil Gaiman's own award-bedecked, best-selling fiction. Now he reaches back through time to the original source stories in a thrilling and vivid rendition of the great Norse tales. Gaiman's gods are thoroughly alive - irascible, visceral, playful and passionate - and the tales carry us from the beginning of everything to Ragnarök and the twilight of the gods. Galvanised by Gaiman's prose, Thor, Loki, Odin and Freya are irresistible forces for modern listeners, and the crackling, brilliant writing demands to be heard around an open fire on a freezing, starlit night.

A collection of Norse myths
Instead of a nicely woven story this is just bits and pieces put together for you to make a story of. Instead of a novel, this reads like collection of short stories, I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with it but it would have been better if author filled those gaps to his liking.

Neil Gaiman paints every scene in your head.
I was apprehensive to try out this book as I had worried that I wouldn’t be able to catch some of character’s names and the places,etc. and would consequently perhaps lose the plot, but my gosh...it was so beautifully read...I found myself feeling like I was watching a movie in my head. I loved every bit of it and I listened to it every minute I could because it is entertaining, gripping and so well told by Neil Gaiman. Please do check this one out.

Fine narration by Neil Gaiman
As a Gaiman fan, I would have downloaded any of his audiobooks. But this particular one caught my attention because I was curious to hear his version of Norse mythology. Gaiman brings to life all the heroic characters spicing their stories with humour, witty one-liners and soul. Thoroughly loved it.

Neil Gaiman has definitely tasted Kvasir's mead
An absolutely brilliant piece of work by Neil Gaiman!
This audiobook weaves together the stories of all the characters of Norse mythology that we love. The events are tied together very well and I never got bored anywhere in this book. The stories written so well and I couldn't help but be impressed with Neil Gaiman's language.
Neil Gaiman's narration was as good or better than his writing. The expressions in his voice matched those of his stories perfectly.
An absolute delight to listen to.

Fun!
Fun! And a great way to dip your toes into Norse Mythos - although it lacks the charm that, say, Fry's Greek Mythos series has in bundles (PS: I listened to the audiobook and yes, Gaiman does the narration).
Gaiman seemingly covers most of the important stories - the majority of them revolving around Odin, his sons Thor and Baldr, Loki and Freyja. Some of the tales were certainly eye-opening - for instance, the one concerning the origin of Mjolnir. I had no idea what a prominent role Loki was said to have had in its' creation. Also, the details of Ragnarok and the events surrounding the death of Baldr were quite riveting as well - though I was personally left thinking that more life could have been breathed into Gaiman's retelling of Ragnarok.
Loki is portrayed as quite a mischievous little bugger - and quite often, ends up biting more than he can chew. I was also surprised to learn of the dozens of children Loki has borne across multiple partners, including giants. And Thor is the dumb brute who always resorts to using his brawns at even the slightest provocation.
This book has motivated me to pick up 'The Poetic Edda' later this year, so that I can dive a little deeper into Norse Mythos. Overall, a great starting point for anyone looking to understand about Thor, Loki and Odin beyond what the MCU has done with them.
