“From the fascinating history of Viking myths, legends, and sagas to their refashioning in opera, plays, novels, films, comic-books, and heavy metal. . . . Jón Karl Helgason’s compelling study is simultaneously learned, insightful, and highly entertaining.”
(Martin Arnold, University of Hull)

“In Echoes of Valhalla Jón Karl Helgason takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the myriad forms that hark back to the literature of medieval Iceland, with discoveries at every turn. . . .Weaving in the less familiar with the well-known—Wagner, Tolkien, and Thor movies—Jón Karl’s learned and witty commentary will engage readers as he explores the remarkable influence of medieval Icelandic mythology and sagas on the many works that construct and reconstruct our cultural memory.”
(Judy Quinn, Cambridge University)

Echoes of Valhalla effectively underlines the ways in which many of our favorite modern narratives are interwoven with enduring ancient Nordic threads.”
(Terry Gunnell, University of Iceland)
