Donar's Lightning

"The Sorrow of Odin the Goth."

"'I do give you my oath - may Donar's lightning smite me if it is false -...'" (p. 350)

This is one of several references to Thor in Poul Anderson's works. The gods live. In our imaginations. Where else? But in very different forms. I had problems with accepting the new Thor film but I like the version of Thor in Marvel Comics' Ultimates line. (See here.) That is a final thought for tonight after returning from the cinema. Good Night.
