Northworld | comment |
The Northworld trilogy by David Drake consists of Northworld (1990), Vengeance (1991), and Justice (1992).Retelling of selected Norse myth as sci fi using powered armor. The name's a pun. North for a cold world like the frozen north of Norse myth. "Norse" itself probably ultimately derived from Middle Dutch nort for, what else, "north." Also for "North's World" for the Expy of Odin, who in the books is named North and commanded a team sent to explore the planet.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); }) | |

A Father to His Men | |
Northworld / int_19d06ef7 | comment |
A Father to His Men: Hansen blames himself for the deaths of anyone who fought on his side—because either they died following his orders, in which case he got them killed, or they died not following his orders, in which case he got them killed by not being able to make them see that what he ordered was the right thing to do. | |

Blue-and-Orange Morality | |
Northworld / int_e8e56799 | comment |
Blue-and-Orange Morality: Sparrow's revenge on those who enslaved him. He murders children and has a teenager raped. Author David Drake notes that, even for the people whose legends these are based on, Volund (or Wayland) the Smith was more a force of nature than a man, and not necessarily to be admired or emulated. | |
