Book excerpt: Where is it that gods go after they've been banished? Maybe they haven't gone anywhere. In oblique encounters with passing strangers, the lives of ordinary and not-so-ordinary people turn in new and interesting directions. These stories are based on the myths of the Vikings, but they contain nothing magical or supernatural. Or do they? Sometimes it's hard to tell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valhalla and its pantheon of gods and heroes have always fascinated readers, whether it is how these tales illuminate the Viking world or influence cultural touchstones like J. R. R. Tolkien, whose Middle Earth is heavily indebted to Germanic and Norse mythology, as well as Hollywood and comics culture.In Tales of Valhalla, the Whittocks have dramatically retold these rich stories and set them in context within the wider Viking world. Including both myths—stories, usually religious, which explain origins, why things are as they are, the nature of the spiritual—and legends—stories which attempt to explain historical events and may involve historical characters but are told in a non-historical way and often include supernatural events—Tales of Valhalla is an accessible and lively volume that brings these hallmarks of world literature to a new generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cheshire is a county that associates with the giants of English literature, such as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Wierdstone of Brisingamen, but how did these fabulous tales develop from a supposedly flat county of boggy, cheese-making plains? This book uncovers some of the surprise and charm hidden in the folds of this unassuming landscape. For hundreds of years, Cheshire folk have been quietly telling their own tales about some of Britain's great heroes, as well as wrestling with their own demons, dragons and boggarts. Let the Journey Man guide you along the canals, through the forests and safely past the sniddlebogs to some surprisingly spectacular heights where you can experience Cheshire's own heroes alongside its eccentric traditions and fast-disappearing dialect. It's not all salt and cheese... The Journey Man is an internationally travelled storyteller who has settled in Cheshire. He has been telling stories for some twenty years, and has been given the opportunity to gather and retell the folk tales and history of Cheshire. He now visits schools throughout the North West of England, as well as leading storytelling walks for all ages.

Do you want to know what runes are and what their meaning is? Or how can you use them? Do you wish to know the famous Viking's beliefs and stories? The best-preserved form of the ancient common Germanic mythology, which also includes the closely related Anglo-Saxon mythology, is Norse mythology. In turn, Germanic mythology originated from older Indo-European mythology. Norse mythology refers to the mythical framework in Scandinavia during and around the Viking Age. The Nordic mythological universe is both intricate and extensive, with a creation story where the first gods murder a giant and convert his body parts into the globe. Many kingdoms spread out under the World Tree Yggdrasil's final destruction of the known world in the Ragnarök. Its polytheistic pantheon, which the one-eyed Odin leads, encompasses a large number of various gods and goddesses who were worshipped in ancient Scandinavian cultures. The book has two parts, and it includes topics like: The Gods of Norse Methodology Ragnarok Runic deviation Runes in Modern Magic Runic inscription and meanings And many more exciting topics! Runes are a collection of stones, wood, or other objects with holy symbols carved into them. Each rune has its narrative to tell. Runes may convey your life's tale, whether strewn across a surface, taken from a bag, or meticulously placed out in patterns. The earliest runic script, known now as the Elder Futhark, was developed to satisfy the demands of the newly forming languages as these dialects grew more different from the original Proto-Germanic. Runes were introduced to different runic scripts to represent new sounds that entered the languages, new runic symbols represented existing sounds, and some runes were removed entirely.
