Following the smash-hit Olympians series, George O'Connor embarks on a new saga about the Norse gods. This first volume tells the story of the warrior god Odin!
Welcome to the Nine Worlds, home of Gods, Valkyries, Dwarves, Jotnar, and more! Travel the burning rainbow bridge to Asgard, where Odin, chief of the Aesir, surveys his realm. His thirst for knowledge drives him ever onward, but nothing is learned without sacrifice . . .
In Asgardians, George O’Connor’s highly kinetic illustrations bring these gritty and astonishing tales of war, betrayal, and the quest for enlightenment at any cost to vivid and startling life and provide the perfect companion to his Olympians series.
