Book of Heathen: A guide to Norse Paganism and Wilderness Survival (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798807042552)

Long before crosses crowned steeples, the North was ruled by gods of storm and flame. Odin the Wanderer, Thor the Thunderer, Freyja of the many faces-divine powers who demanded sacrifice and gave no promises of mercy.

The Book of Heathen is an exploration of Norse pagan faith: its myths, rituals, and the raw, untamed worldview that shaped a people at the edge of the world. These are stories of creation out of frost and fire, of wolves that chase the sun, of men who swore oaths with blood and found their worth in battle. Here the Nine Worlds stretch across the roots and branches of Yggdrasil, the World Tree, while giants, spirits, and tricksters contest the fate of gods and mortals alike.

This is not a gentle mythology. It is a record of power, doom, and wonder-of Ragnarök, when the gods themselves fall, and of the renewal that rises after the ruin. Through sagas and symbols, The Book of Heathen invites you to step into the old faith, where every stone and storm carried meaning, and every choice bound a soul closer to its fate.

For readers of myth, folklore, and history, this book is both a guide and a chronicle: a return to the voices of the North, before they were silenced, before they were changed.
