Publisher's Summary

Runes are the ancient Norse alphabet used for communication, divination, and magical work. In Futhark, American runologist Edred Thorsson introduces listeners to the 24 runes of the Elder Futhark, their definitions, and mystic properties.

The runic system of magic and mysticism is one of the most powerful forms of metaphysical thought available to the Western world. The audio edition of this bestselling classic book on Runes is required listening for those who seek true knowledge of the mystery of the Runes.

Thorsson's presentation of this powerful system is lucid and profound and provides a valuable tool for spiritual transformation and self development. Futhark is expertly narrated by Brian Arens, an Audible Listener favorite.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Cornball Narrator

This book has some great information and guidance in it. It's really a core and foundational text for rune study. The narrator made it sound like the galdr work is like Gregorian chant or something. I don't want to be too harsh, I think it would be difficult to make an audiobook out of this and it not sound cheesy as heck. I'm not a huge fan of pseudo-archaic ritual language so the combination of the narrator's corny voice and the ritual scripts made it a bit much for me. The prefatory material and the later chapters are excellent info, but I'd probably recommend buying a hard copy instead.
