Anglo-Saxon myths : the struggle for the Seven Kingdoms
Stratford, Brice2022
Books
Enter an ancient world of gods and monsters, elves and dwarves, of ettins and orcs and wreccan heroes on journeys of exile and discovery. This collection is a story-hoard, surviving shards of belief that forge a portal to an Anglo-Saxon age overflowing with mythology, magic and all manner of beguiling creatures from Middle Earth and the Seven Kingdoms. From the Wyrd who weave our fates, to Woden the Wyrm-wise, and the flaming axe of Thunner that felled giants and dragons alike - from a child who sang civilisation into existence, to the haunting revenge of battle-maiden Arilda, there are tales to intrigue and inspire us all.
