Best Viking/Norse TL

I'm looking for the good TL where the point of divergence and major focus is Norse society. I'm particularly interested in ones where the author shows a great understanding of Norse pre christian beliefs.
 
What do we really know about pre-Christian Norse beliefs and practices? I understand most of it has been filtered rather heavily through a Christian context, or represents a more modern reconstruction.

(Sorry I don't have any answers, I'm just curious what sort of exploration of those beliefs you're looking for. I also would be happy to see such timelines if anyone has any suggestions.)
 
OTL Vikings' descendants rule Russia and England and the British Commonwealth .... can't get much more powerful than that!

Sadly, most Norse rulers married local women who taught their children the "mother tongue" so Norse traditions were quickly assimilated and forgotten. The same process quickly absorbed Germanic tribes that conquered the Western (Italian Penninsula) Roman Empire.

And yes, learning more about pre-Christian Viking traditions would be enlightening. Please tell us more.
