Amazon still hasn't shipped them for some reason, but if you want the ebook of my translation of the Saga of the Volsungs + the Saga of Ragnar Lothbrok, you can already get it from Google Books. The Google Books page also has a preview that includes the whole introduction, and the first three chapters of the Saga of the Volsungs, if you want to try it out.

The Saga of the Volsungs

From the translator of the bestselling Poetic Edda (Hackett, 2015) comes a gripping new rendering of two of the greatest sagas of Old Norse literature. Together the two sagas recount the story of seven generations of a single legendary heroic family and comprise our best source of traditional lore about its members-including, among others, the dragon-slayer Sigurd, Brynhild the Valkyrie, and the Viking chieftain Ragnar Lothbrok.
