The Incompleat Enchanter by L. Sprague de Camp
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I'm pleasantly surprised with this. It's an old fantasy, way back in 1940, but we've got ourselves a psychology, physics, and math explanation for magic, using sympathy and symbolic logic in our modern day to twist reality.
Cool? It's nothing compared to WHERE we go, however.
The Aesir. To be in the middle of Ragnarok. We hang out with Heimdal, avoid Loki, and survive the ultimate end-times.
Using psychology, math tricks, and a little alternate-universe stuff. :)
The writing is solid, the adventure better, and best of all, I had a good time.
