The visible world is the flesh of the invisible gods. The Old Ways still live within us, in our blood, heart and soul and only need to be rediscovered by rediscovering our heritage, of our polytheistic Indo-European forefathers. By studying mythology, we are indeed studying how our ancestors of the pre-Christian age saw themselves and their world. Thus, we come to find values and ideals long-forgotten or put aside in the modern society. Alessandro Revan, founder of the renowned Internet group Sons of Odin (counting several thousands of members), presents a deepening on the supernatural world of the Viking-Age. The book deals with description and analysis of the spiritual and cultural beliefs of the Heathen Scandinavians, providing a complete cycle of stories of ancient myths of the Norsemen. The author treats keenly the meaning behind such mythological world and the significance that those supernatural beings have in our every day life.
