This audiobook takes Norse mythology back to the beginning — explaining it as it was originally used, not as modern fantasy or academic theory. Designed for complete beginners, it shows where the myths came from, why they were shaped for memory, and how that shaped their meaning.

Norse Mythology contains stories passed down from the ancient Norse religion, practiced by the Vikings and other northern people who live in modern-day Scandinavia, Iceland, and throughout the British Isles. In this book, you will also find many stories about the gods Thor and Loki and their exploits in the land of the giants. You will hear the story of the dwarf Andvari and his golden ring - the myth that is the basis for Robert Wagner’s famous opera The Ring of Nibelung as well as J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings trilogy.

While the main focus of the book is on telling the stories, some scene-setting is provided at the beginning, and each chapter also contains a section of commentary to explain what is going on and its significance. The Norse myths have gained widespread attention in the English-speaking world, partly through a Scandinavian diaspora, especially in the USA, and partly through a great interest in the myths and legends which lie behind Viking activity.

This audiobook is an excellent guide for novices interested in Norse spiritual practices and experienced pagans alike.
