The saga of Olaf Tryggvason was the best part of this book, the latter half, which is about Harald the Tyrant, was interesting just from a historical perspective.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great material, bizzare typos
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2011

As sagas go, Snorri Sturlson's are among the best. The material on Harald Hardrade in particular is great. The translation seems to be pretty good. One really gets the feel of the man; after reading this I suspect more than ever Harald the Viking would have made a frighteningly good Wall Street power broker....

There are some peculiarities in the layout of the text. I finally figured out that the seemingly random numbers are what were page numbers when this was a print text. Smaller numbers in brackets are links to the Notes, and the links do work nicely. Here is where I prefer print editions -- I prefer to have a bookmark in the Notes in the back, so I can flip easily to whatever item intrests me. Although Kindle notes are not bad they are not as easy to use as a piece of ribbon.

Another peculiarity were bizarre characters occuring in the middle of a word, things like upside-down question marks and the number 1/2. I'm guessing maybe this is how the software deals with symbols it is not programmed for such as umlauts? Can be maddening. That's why I just can't give the book five stars.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy
Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2012
Do not buy books from this publisher. As the other review says, there are bizarre typos and in at least one case every other page of the book I received from them was missing. I wrote to the registered principal for the company but received no response. It's one thing to have a few typos here and there but when so many pages are missing that it is useless to have a reprint, that has crossed the line.
