About this audiobook

This book consists of two titles, which are the following:

Book 1: Scandinavians of the ancient world had many gods and goddesses they worshiped. Are you curious about which ones they revered so much?

Well, in this guide, that’s exactly what you will learn.

To start off, this brief guide will go over some a quick history of the Vikings. Then, you will discover more about several deities that are worth mentioning, as well as some queer beliefs and false notions that have been spread about the Norse.

Book 2: How did the ancient Vikings live?

What was their society like?

This and many other questions about history and mythology will be answered in this brief guide. For example, an entire chapter is devoted to women’s roles in Viking society. Other chapters discuss the appearance of trolls and other creatures in Norse myths. You’ll find out why certain popular children’s movies have included Viking clothing and other elements in their narrative, what Viking art is all about.

Last but not least, you can learn more about Ragnar Lothbrok, one of the heroes in Viking myths.

Well written, well-read, a thrilling journey into the mystical halls of Norse mythology. The only complaint I have is that it was over far too quickly. Filled all the timeless metaphors old legends try to warn us about, but also the charm and heart that is Christopher Knight

You probably won't lament getting this audio book. It gives you what it claims it does. I 'd like everybody to understand that I recommend this book. The book clarifies several viewpoints effectively. It also dives deeper in to the material. My favorite chapters were definitely the last chapters, in which the final thought became crystal clear.
