After reading a horror book with short stories based on Icelandic legends (What Protects Our Heritage and Other Aberrations by Villimey Mist), I was interested enough to try out a book of Icelandic folklore. The tales here are told with wit, but I found some of them quite boring. I think maybe I was looking for something a bit more creature heavy. 3.25 stars
