In this informational guide, the author will take you by the hand and educate you about the various gods and goddesses the Germanic peoples of medieval times and before worshipped. The subtle differences and the overlap with Nordic gods are worth studying. In this guide, you will find explanations and dramas of legendary creatures and worship customs, as well as:

  • Paganism, death rituals, and historical tales from Western Europe
  • Gods like Wodan, Hlidskjalf, and the legend of Valhalla
  • More background on Baldur, Ziu, Tyr, Fenrir, and other gods
  • The complete story of Heimdall, Loki, and Nerthus (mother Earth)
  • Details about beautiful goddesses like Frigga and Freya
  • Get into the depths of the myths, and understand the dramatic, complicated relationships and superpowers of the different gods from the underworld, the heavens, and the earth. Get a grip of what people believed back then and how it all ties in to some of the customs or fictional stories we tell in today's age.
