In this series, we explore the origins of the Norse cosmos — from the creation of the world and the first humans to the powerful giants and gods who shaped it. You’ll hear stories of Yggdrasil, the great World Tree that connects all realms, and uncover the mythic roots of the Norse universe. These voice recordings offer a simple yet rich introduction to the core stories and characters of Norse mythology, told in a way that’s engaging and easy to follow.

The King Cycle is also known as the Historical Cycle. These tales are essentially about Kingship, the fortunes of Kings, and Kingship as a marriage between the King and the realm (and sometimes the goddess, a symbol of the land). Prosperity in the realm was intimately connected to the quality of the King. In addition the king was frequently bound by certain restrictions, called ‘geasa’. The more power you had the more this needed to be contained.
