    Norse myths retold in a modern American rather blue collar Scandinavian immigrant settng, presumably by the reprobate uncle Einar to his neices/nephews. Some of it is really funny and all of it is ingenious in adapting the myths to their new setting. Bias warning: J.T. Sibley has been a friend of mine for over 30 years.
