Thor is an immensely popular God but also one of contradictions, whose complexity is sometimes underrated. Often depicted as oefish, he was clever enough to outwit the dwarf Alviss (All-wise). A God of storms and thunder, he brought fertility and blessed brides at weddings and although a defender of civilization and order, he usually traveled with a trickster deity. Pagan Portals - Thor is an introductory book that examines both history and mythology, untangling older beliefs from modern pop-culture.

"A concise and solid introduction to a powerful deity whose mainstream fame has changed the landscape of his worship."
Phoenix Lafae, author of What Is Remembered Lives
