Book excerpt: A good book to learn more about norse mythology and legends. In the beginning, when the beautiful and sunny world was first made, there stood, in the very midst of all its beauty, Mt. Ida-a mountain so high, so far away up among the snowy clouds, that its summit was lost in the shining light of the rays of the sun. At its base, stretching away to the north, the south, the east, and the west, as far as even the eyes of the gods could reach, lay the soft, green valleys and the great, broad plain beyond. Encircling the whole great plain, and curling lovingly around in all the little bends and bays of the distant shore, lay the deep blue waters; and beyond the waters, hidden in the distant mists, rose the great mountains in which the frost giants dwelt.

But do not be put off - these are the contemporary versions of these legends and stories re-written with young adults in mind, and not the heavy, hard to understand versions which academics would revel in. The legends in this volume are: I the beginning II. Yggdrasil III odin at the well of wisdom IV odin and the all-wise giant V the stolen wine part i. VI the stolen wine part ii VII. Loke’s theft VIII thor’s hammer XI the theft of the hammer XII the finding of the hammer XIII the apples of life Parts I & II XV loke’s wolf XVI the fenris wolf XVII defeat of hrungner XVIII thor and skrymer XIX thor and the utgard-king XX thor and the midgard serpent The Valkyries’ song XXI the dying baldur XXII the punishment of loke XXIII the darkness that fell on asgard This volume also includes a vocabulary which gives the spelling and pronunciations of the names of the characters in the legends.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Norseland Series: Norseland Tales Colonel Ring was a Norwegian officer who had entered the Sultan's service. In the war of 1877-78, between Russia and Turkey, he distinguished himself on many occasions, and won the friendship and admiration of his general, Osman Pasha. After the retirement of the victorious Russians, Colonel Ring desired to take his leave and return to his own country; but the Sultan begged him to remain and detained him from year to year, for he found great advantage in the Colonel's services, and became attached to him personally. The frank and open manner of this blue-eyed Norseman, in whom he had complete confidence, was particularly pleasing to the sombre and suspicious ruler of the Moslems, surrounded as he was by dangers and intrigues.

This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Valhalla the Myths of Norseland, a Saga, in Twelve Parts What a curious fact it is, that among us, English-speaking people, scholarly investigation has clung rather to the classic lore and mythology of Greece and Rome, than to the less classic, but far purer and truer religion of the North. It is much to be deplored that so slight a knowledge of Scandinavian Mythology prevails, popularly, with those who boast descent from Hengist and Horsa, and whose pride it is that in their veins flows the blood that long ago thrilled through the bold hearts of the Vikings, descendants of the old Norse-Gods.
