The Prose Edda: 1 of only 2 main sources with full organized mythology on the Norse Gods and religion. Written in Iceland shortly after the Viking Age by the famous Snorri Sturlusson, it is the source of most of what we know of Norse mythology.
Unlike the "Poetic Edda", this book is written in a very easy to read story format including all the tales of the gods that we know and love. Also included is very important historical information that is relatively little known.
