Do you have any resources to help you self-study? If not then I suggest Routledge's Colloquial Icelandic &/or Hippocrene Beginners: Icelandic. Colloquial Icelandic is probably the better of the two since it guarantees that you will achieve level B2 on the CEFR scale where with Hippocrene there's no guarantee, but it's still worth picking it up.

Also if you have Skype feel free to join the Icelandic Skype group that I set up. :)

Here's Egil's saga in old Norse

And here's a series of dual-language sagas

That's all I've found so far, the second link has about 10 sagas but you might wanna be careful with them, most don't have reviews and some that do are pretty bad (I don't have any of those so I couldn't say personally, the first link is nice though.)

Also, Jesse L. Byock has an old Norse reader coming out in September that will have at least large exerts if not full sagas.

I've used Hippocrene's Beginner's Icelandic as well as Complete Icelandic. I fell off the wagon and haven't devoted any time recently to learning, but both books were helpful when I was trying to learn. If I had to choose only one of them, I'd probably choose Complete Icelandic, but they were useful to me in tandem because each covered little things that the other didn't.

I've also heard that Icelandic Learning is very useful. IIRC, you have to pass the entire course before you can apply for citizenship/visas. I could be wrong on that, it's been a few years.

That was the first and only thing that came to mind when I tried to think of one. I was thinking only of Geir T. Zoëga, the apparently quite well-known guy who compiled my Concise Dictionary of Old Icelandic. (Spoiler alert: it's not very concise.)

”Drekka” is here in the infinitive, undeclined. You’d say ”ég vil tala íslensku”. Infinitives normally end in -a. ”Talar” would be the present tense for 2nd and 3rd person. Sorry if I misunderstood what you were asking.

I don’t know which you’re referring to; there are many books on Icelandic. You’re not thinking of this?

Edit: mistake
