An introduction to such a vast subject as Norse mythology can be problematic, as it could well fall between two stools; so packed with details as to put one off, or so vague, that one is none the wiser for having read it. This audiobook manages a pleasing balance, succeeds in whetting the appetite and supplying excellent resources for the listener who wishes to know more.

You will hear about...

• Creation in Norse mythology
• The nine worlds
• Major gods and goddesses
• Valhalla
• Ragnarok
• The sagas
• The influence of Norse mythology on our lives today
