The Seed of Yggdrasill-Deciphering the Hidden Messages in Old Norse Myths - 2nd Edition

This is a book long awaited by Mythology fans, Pagans seeking basis for ritual, and by academics interested in the roots of Northern and Western culture. A fresh and exciting view on a very original subject, the 712 page friendly tome is an authoritative peeling back of the layers of secrecy and time. By translating 1500 year old manuscripts, Kvilhaug reveals a startling new perspective of metaphor and ritual within the Old Norse Myths. BBC reviewer, Richard Rudgely says: "a valuable work for the student of mythology and essential for those who would revive the Norse traditions."
