Further Reading - The Saga of Egil and Asmund can be found in the Penguin Publication of Seven Viking Romances - Saxo Grammaticus' History of the Danes, Asmund's live burial can be found in Book Five - Both accounts are compiled in the Penguin Book of the Undead. This also contains the story of Thorolf Twist-Foot but does not include the portion involving Glaesir. - Thorolf's story is found in Eyrbyggja Saga - The Road to Hel - Hilda Ellis (later HRE Davidson) is an excellent literary analysis on the Norse conception of death, and contains several references to events involving the Draugr. Just keep in mind that it was published in the 40s, so much of the archeological information might be outdated, and/or be incomplete.
