Used Book in Good Condition
I would recommend The Viking Age: A Reader, it's pretty much the book about the vikings, also includes a lot of information on both early viking religion/myth as well as how it evolved with the introduction of Christianity. Also: Vikings. So that's cool.
Else Roesdahl's The Vikings is a pretty good place to start.
Others have also mentioned some of the sagas: Njal's Saga, The Saga of the Volsungs. Beowulf takes place in Scandinavia.
Somerville and Mcdonald's The Viking Age: A Reader is a nice collection of translated historical texts and documents. It includes a description of the Lindisfarne raids and some of the subsequent reactions of priests and kings from The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle.
