About this listen

Let me tell you a little story about Odin, the Allfather, ruler of Asgard, wisdom-seeker, and part-time daredevil. One day, he decided that simply being the most powerful god in the Norse cosmos wasn’t enough—he needed more wisdom. And in true Norse fashion, he didn’t just hit the library or meditate on a mountain. No, Odin hanged himself from Yggdrasil, the World Tree. I’ll stop here because that’s a fun story later on. Extreme? Absolutely. Effective? Apparently (you will know why). And that, dear listener, sets the tone for this book. Because Norse mythology is not for the faint of heart, it’s bold and chaotic, and it’s filled with larger-than-life characters who tackle destiny head-on.

These myths aren’t polite bedtime stories—they’re sagas of survival, sacrifice, and smashing things with hammers. This isn’t your average mythology book, stuffed with dry academic analysis and footnotes that make you feel like you’re being quizzed. Nope. This is a deep dive into the Norse myths with a side of humor, modern relevance, and interactive boot camps (yes, really). You’ll find “Boot Camp” sections throughout the book, where you’ll be challenged with reflection questions or activities.

What’s the point of hearing about fate, honor, and trickster gods if you don’t apply these lessons to your own life? We’ll explore everything from Yggdrasil, the great tree that holds the universe together, to Ragnarök, the ultimate showdown where gods, giants, and monsters throw down in an apocalyptic brawl.

This book is for anyone who loves mythology, history, or just a good story. Maybe you’re a student looking for a way to make sense of the Viking world. Maybe you’re a writer or artist looking for inspiration. Or maybe you just enjoy hearing about gods who make questionable life choices. No matter your background, all you need is a sense of wonder and a willingness to explore.
