A few of these works have been preserved in the collection of Norse poetry known as the \"Poetic Edda.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor addition information on publishing your books on iBook,iPhone And iPad please visit www.AppsPublisher.com","brand":"Apps Publisher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47078805471472,"sku":"2940012327420","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012327420_p0.jpg?v=1763567352","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012327420","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
