Tacitus is, um, dry to put it nicely. The only part I ever really got into was the part about a guy named Marbod (Latin:Maroboduus) of the Marcomani and that is only because my family name is derived from his. Isn't Arminius a hero to the Asatru? He was the guy who banished Marbod who seems to become rather Romanized and lived out his last 18 years in Ravenna, Italy.
