Open Your Norse Treasure Box!

Enter a world where gods and goddesses mingle with the supernatural beings of the Asgard and Jotunheim, where heroes fight epic battles and monsters are thwarted; where legendary tales are told with an eye toward eternal glory—the treasure that is Norse mythology is an undeniable pleasure to read. Explore another world of medieval times, never to be forgotten.

The motifs of Norse legends are similar to that of many other mythologies: Magic is a handy way to explain the extraordinary; heroes are larger-than-life, with superhuman strength and wisdom to spare; gods are tricky and should be approached with caution; harrowing journeys are undertaken; battles are fought and champions are forged. The Norse were the victims of internecine battles and foreign conquests, yet their legacy survives with a long-standing oral tradition that, eventually, was written down. We can see the Norse evolution from settled farmers to raiding Vikings to Christian converts through the thread of their treasure trove of myths and tales.

This book can take you through that journey, beginning with an overview of the Norse peoples and cultures, and into an understanding of their pantheon of gods and goddesses, their amazing tales of adventure and restless search for meaning, and a glimpse into who they actually were via the stories they held dear. Some specific elements you will encounter:

Some of the main gods of the Norse pantheon, with all their quirks and foiblesThe mystery of the Nine Worlds, including Asgard and ValhallaThe wily ways in which Norse myths weave moral lessons throughoutThe greatest hero, Thor, and the greatest trickster, Loki, in all of Norse mythThe story of Beowulf—the greatest literary hero to emerge out of ScandinaviaTales of the race of giants—the devourers—who spread chaos and destructionThe twisted tale of the Mead of Suttungr, the inspiration for poetsThe original version of Ragnarok—end of the universeProfiles of trolls and Valkyries, elves and dwarves—the supernatural population of Norse mythologyThe relationship between Midgard and the godsA glimpse into the myriad ways that Norse culture and its mythology still yet influence our world today

Norse mythology is diverse and fascinating, offering us an insight into how ancient people believed and lived, what they valued and vilified, and how they lived and thrived. If you have enjoyed these treasured tales of Norse mythology, don’t forget to explore the other fantastic realms of mythological magic in this series of books: Treasures of Egyptian Mythology, Treasures of Celtic Mythology, Treasures of Roman Mythology, and Treasures of Greek Mythology. You will find yourself in awe of the sweeping scope of history and culture represented by these mythological traditions, as well as gain a better understanding of how we continually make and re-make these myths for our own times. That’s the fabulous thing about myths: They never truly die.

Did you know that Loki is the father of the monstrous creatures that are prophesied to kill the gods of Asgard?

When Heimdall blows his horn to signal the beginning of Ragnarök, the gods of Asgard are left with no choice but to face the forces of chaos on the battlefield of Vigrid. This is when Loki and his monstrous sons, Jörmungandr the World Serpent and Fenrir the Giant Wolf, will exact their revenge, a mission they will succeed in, although it will cost their lives. On this day, everyone, including the mightiest of gods, will spill blood on the battlefield. The entire world will perish, leaving only an empty void for life to happen all over again.

The stories and myths of the Norse were passed down by the Vikings in oral tradition until they were recorded in manuscripts by anonymous authors in the mid-13th century. The myths that survived tell the story of how the world was first created by the gods using the dead body of a primeval giant, the existence of the different realms surrounding the universe, and various tales and lore about the gods’ adventures.

Some might suggest that Norse myths take place in a rather gloomy universe, where the lands are filled with endless snow, bleak summers, and vicious wars, while there are also others who imagine the fortified city of the gods as someplace glimmering with gold and towering palaces. But which one of these is true? Since these myths were originally circulated orally and the only written sources that survived are missing some pages, it could be hard for curious readers to find a source that correctly retells the intriguing legends and stories of the Norse gods.

But that is about to change. In this new Enthralling History book, you will discover all the famous tales surrounding the Norse gods and goddesses, from amusing ones to the stories that will leave you at the edge of your seat.

Here’s just a small fraction of what you’ll discover:How the body of the primeval giant, Ymir, was used to shape the earthA detailed description of all nine realms in the Norse world and the World Tree, YggdrasilThe famous legend of how Odin lost his eye in exchange for wisdomHow Loki tricked the dwarves into creating Mjölnir and other treasures for the godsThree of Loki’s monstrous sons and their roles in killing the gods at RagnarökThe unexpected death of Baldur and the gods’ failed attempt at resurrecting himLoki’s gruesome punishment that led to his revenge during RagnarökThe vicious battle between Thor and the World SerpentAnd much, much more!

Stories of the hammer-wielding Thor, wise Odin, beautiful Freya and evil Loki have fascinated people throughout the ages. Even today, almost a thousand years after the last Scandinavians abandoned the old gods for Christianity, the Viking myths continue to captivate new generations of readers. Scandinavian artists have been inspired by these myths for hundreds of years. Art museums all over Scandinavia display paintings with scenes from Norse mythology, and authors and painters still draw on the language and content of the old myths. Also artists elsewhere in the world are inspired by the Norse myths. Richard Wagner borrowed heavily from Viking lore when he wrote his operas, and it’s hard to imagine the fantasy worlds of J. R. R. Tolkien and George R. R. Martin without the inspiration from Scandinavian mythology.

This book offers the modern reader a gateway into the wondrous world of Norse mythology with all its gods, goddesses, heroes, giants, elves, dwarfs and other creatures. But at the same time, this is more than just a collection of the ancient myths. This book also places all these gods and myths in their historical context and explains the religion of the Vikings, with its sacred calendar, its holy places and its sacrifices.
