Find yourself with some free time, but can't fill it playing Skyrim? Getting twitchy withdrawal symptoms? Read the Guidebook, and all the 'Oblivion' novels? Then do yourself a favour, grab a copy of the best ever fantasy viking novel, Poul Anderson's The Broken Sword, and settle down and begin reading (for best effect while listening to the Skyrim soundtrack or some Wagner).

Can anyone one else recommend any other similar, Nord flavoured, books?


I wonder what influenced the Skyrim writing team - books, movies, etc?
