The Norse Scriptures.
The book everyone has kept asking for finally exists.
It's a biblical description from the beginning of the world--the emptiness of Ginnungagap--to the fiery end.
This book is thoroughly researched by an expert on norse and leaves behind the inaccuracies you often see.

The Road To Hel 📚💙
Neurotic Kjell and his Indian partner Sundar, who is armed with an unshakeable calm and a thermos full of tea must brave the road to Hel in this hilarious book.
Think Terry Pratchett meets Norse mythology.

The mind is an obsession machine that will turn any sequence of events into a "Lesson." We are addicted to causality.
In standard narratives, options narrow as the story progresses.
In Act 1, anything can happen. By Act 3, only one specific inevitable thing can happen.

The Norse Scriptures is out.
This is the Norse world that was hidden from you.
You will not find Snorri’s sanitized scraps here. You will not find the dry, dusty fragments of academics. And you will certainly not find the unholy, bastardized noise of Marvel comics.
