Story
Eight hundred years ago, an heir to the Vikings collected their myths and wrote them down. Here are those original tales of Odin and Thor, magic and might, presented for your listening enjoyment. The Prose Edda (also known as Snorri's Edda or The Younger Edda) is a manual of poetics written by Snorri Sturluson around the year 1220. In it, Snorri compiled the old myths and legends of the Norsemen, in order that poets from his time might draw on these stories to keep the Icelandic-Viking heritage alive.

Story
The Viking Spirit is an introduction to Norse mythology like no other. As you’d expect from Daniel McCoy, the creator of the endearingly popular website "Norse Mythology for Smart People", it’s written to scholarly standards, but in a simple, clear, and entertaining style that’s easy to understand and a pleasure to listen to. It includes gripping retellings of no less than 34 epic Norse myths - more than any other book in the field - while also providing an equally comprehensive overview of the fascinating viking religion of which Norse mythology was a part.

Story
This book is an exploration of the wisdom in the Viking Age poem "Havamal", specifically as it relates to the average person who isn't a scholar of Old Norse, or even an enthusiast of Viking culture. This book is for the layman, the average person who simply wants to improve their life using proven advice. The poem "Havamal" is earthy, cynical, stoic, and grim in its depiction of human life. Havamal means “The Words of the High One”. The poem's speaker is none other than Odin, King of the Gods, who has traveled the many worlds seeking power and suffered greatly in his quest.

Story
The Viking Age - from 750 to 1050 saw an unprecedented expansion of the Scandinavian peoples into the wider world. As traders and raiders, explorers and colonists, they ranged from eastern North America to the Asian steppe. But for centuries, the Vikings have been seen through the eyes of others, distorted to suit the tastes of medieval clerics and Elizabethan playwrights, Victorian imperialists, Nazis, and more. None of these appropriations capture the real Vikings, or the richness and sophistication of their culture.

Wonderful Primer and Very Explicitly Anti-fascist
This was fantastic, and it definitely lived up to what I had hoped for. Really well done! Looking forward to the next book.

good but likely better in print
This book has a lot of really good info but its chapter on runes would be much better in print. The author does spend a large amount of time addressing the struggle against fascism and neo fascist groups today within the Norse Pagan community but this seemed a bit excessive in the amount of space it took up. Still, the author did an excellent job of revealing how a new practitioner could go about developing a religious practice towards norse gods and I would recommend the book to anyone thinking about a more spiritual approach towards the gods.

This book is very interesting and we'll written. The narrator is pretty good even if some old Norse words aren't correctly spelled.
Sadly, in my opinion, the author lost points when plugging some modern era political & trendy issues.

The Way is over produced
Got this audible hoping it could help supplement the hard copy I already own…I couldn’t even wade through Roger Clark’s performance.
Too haughty for my taste. Thanks but no thanks.

Way too political
The author talks more about politics than any useful practices for pagans starting out. The statement that being a pagan and having no political view is the same as being a nazi is outlandish. Leave politics out of paganism. Anyone too far left or right has their ideas bleeding all over things it shouldn't. Even the suggested readings in the appendix are all feminism and transgender books. No thank you.
