About this listen

Trolls haunt the snowy forests, and terrifying monsters roam the open sea.

A young woman journeys to the end of the world, and a boy proves he knows no fear.

This collection of 16 traditional tales transports readers to the enchanting world of Nordic folklore. Translated and transcribed by folklorists in the 19th century, and presented here unabridged, the stories are by turns magical, hilarious, cozy, and chilling. They offer a fascinating view into Nordic culture and a comforting wintertime listen.

Beautifully written, and wonderfully presented. These stories have been added to my ‘Favourites’ collection. They are an absolute treat and pair well with a mug of hot chocolate.

My review should be read understanding that I am from a Norwegian family and so there is some built in bias towards a favourable review. That said I really did enjoy it. It has a nice scattering of tales and kept my interest.

Interesting but…

well, yes, I'm American. But I love to learn history, other cultures, and be well rounded. So, greatly enjoyed these. I'm sure Nordic people grew up with these. But for me they were refreshingly new.

New and enjoyable!
