I listened to the audiobook and I can't recommend that enough. Narration was great and the stories were very engaging and funny at times.

I haven’t read the book so can’t say how accurate the radio show is as an adaptation, but it is really well produced. I didn’t know much about Norse mythology before and this gave a great overview.
