Germanic Mythology - Bernard Hayes

 I was not impressed with this book. The organization is lacking, consequently it was hard to follow. I was also disappointed in that it spoke about Nordic, Greek and Roman gods more than the Germanic tribes of central Europe, which was the whole point of me reading the book. I know information on them is sparse, but I thought that's why the book was so small. There are many parallels between gods of these 4 regions, but when names were listed, I wasn't even sure who to attribute the names to. Back to the drawing board for this info I guess.
