The Ásatrú Edda: Sacred Lore of the North

Description

From the ashes arises the sacred lore of the North, the ancient stories and
proverbial wisdom of the Ásatrú religion. Mighty Gods and fierce Giants battle
in the never-ending struggle between order and chaos, while men seek honor and
glory in the eyes of their beloved deities. After many years of research and
piecing together sources, now comes the first known holy text ever presented
for the Ásatrú faith. Giving these ancestral accounts in their true, epic
form, The Ásatrú Edda is designed as a religious work by and for the men and
women of this path. In reconstructing this sacred epic, the idea is to create
a living storytelling tradition that will honor the legacy of the ancient
Teutonic peoples, while providing an in-depth source of Ásatrú wisdom for our
modern world. Read more
