Based on events that took place between 960 and 1020 AD, Njál 's Saga is a mesmerizing drama about a multigenerational cycle of violence and retribution, and the feuds and passions that perpetuate it.

The Prose Edda and the Poetic Edda are our oldest written sources for Norse mythology.

It is my hope that you will enjoy this collection, and that the two books will work in tandem to broaden and deepen your appreciation for these epic and mystical stories, and the enigmatic culture that spawned them.

«Песнь о Нибелунгах» – один из самых фундаментальных эпосов мировой культуры наряду с «Илиадой», «Одиссеей», «Беовульфом», «Калевалой». Эта знаменитая германская поэма была написана неизвестным средневековым автором более 800 лет назад, но ее великая трагедия и великая красота трогает сердца и сегодня. В центре насыщенного и драматичного сюжета – женитьба героя-драконоборца Зигфрида на бургундской принцессе Кримхильде.

I am coming to you from the city. If your listening, it might be too late for me. It's not too late for you. Listen. Save humanity. Save the world.

«Старшая Эдда» — великий скандинавский эпос, стоящий наряду с «Илиадой», «Одиссеей» и «Махабхаратой», — до недавнего времени не имел современного пересказа и был неизвестен широкой публике. Однако составляющие его «Песни о богах» и «Песни о героях» признаны истоком всей западноевропейской фэнтези и фантастики. Заметное влияние «Старшая Эдда» оказала и на Джона Р.Р. Толкина, благодаря чему был создан «Властелин колец» и популярность обрели такие древнеисландские существа, как гномы, тролли, орки, эльфы и, конечно же, боги Асгарда, украшающие сейчас постеры всемирно известных фильмов Marvel.
