Egypt - Budge or something more modern. Idk.
Norse - Idk but Golden Bough may cover some things and I'm sure Campbell should have something.

Also - Deities & Demigods. It's 1st Ed Dungeons & Dragons. It's not scholarly, but it had a wide variety of Pantheons.

Can confirm, great baseline for Greek mythology, and a little norse.

If you read the Iliad and Odyssey and the Homeric Hymns you'll be set for about half of Greek myth.
