The excerpt from Wizard Knight to be published in the Fall issue of
Conjunctions (mentioned by Nick Gevers a while back) is available online
at the Conjunctions website.  Pretty impressive looking issue.

I must say that the language looks somewhat juvenile, but I get the
feeling that there will enough standard Wolfe trickiness to keep me
interested. I've never read THE DEVIL IN A FOREST, so I've never seen
Wolfe write to a younger audience before.

Small world. I'm a freshman at SLU's Madrid campus.

This looks very promising.  When's it supposed to come out?

Does anyone have any thoughts on the quickest and easiest way to learn the
essentials of Norse mythology?  I need to learn the basics anyway before
reading American Gods.

Actually, you really don't, but if you really want to, ... h'mmm.
Check out the mythology section of a good children's library, there
are always good books of Gods And Heroes there. But stay far, far
away from Marvel Comics's THOR.
