Update: The Great Tree: Undrastormur, Part 2
Just a quick update... The early beta reader notes are starting to come in. I got one yesterday from Eirikur, my pal from Iceland. He
works for the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture and keeps me
honest on Norse terms (names, etc.). For example, he told me that "the 'Einherjar' are a
select group and their name should be capitalized instead of lower
case." and that "The correct name of Thor's second
goat is "Tanngnjóstur" which would sound like "Tanngnjost"
in English." Mythology geek that I am, I love this kind of stuff. It means a lot to me to be as "authentic" and true to the era as possible. Thanks, Eirikur!
