Most of what I've read centered around Icelanders. A pretty good selection of tales can be found in a book entitled "The Sagas of Icelanders" which can be purchased fairly cheap if it can't be found at the library. On the net, search "Egil's Saga online" and you should be able to find a fully translated version of one of the more popular tales to give you a taste of the writing style. I have the pleasure of living near a state university whose library has an expensive collection known as the "Complete Sagas of Icelanders." Well, I'm sure it doesn't float everyone's boat, but take a look if you will.
