Good Reference Charles. I love the Norse Mythologies and to find them retold
with modern revisions is nice
But
The tale, Riddles of Horn is a modern retelling of the Icelandic tale of the
theft of Brisingamen, the magical necklace worn by the Lady Frejya, by the
Norse trickster god, Loki
Gjallar ("ringing horn"), is the horn carried by Heimdall, the watchman of the
gods. It lies hidden beneath the third root of the World Tree Yggdrasil. With
a soft tone Heimdall announced the arrival of the gods, but sounded it more
forcefully in times of danger. At Ragnarok, the final battle between Good and
evil, Heimdall will sound Gjallar one final time and will be heard all over
the world, calling the gods and the warriors to the battlefield.
