About this Episode
A retelling of classic Norse myths, drawing from ancient sources like the Prose and Poetic Eddas. Gaiman introduces key figures such as Odin, Thor, and Loki, exploring their complex relationships and defining characteristics. The narrative covers creation myths, the origins of humanity (Ask and Embla), the building of Asgard's wall, the theft of Thor's hammer, and the acquisition of the Mead of Poetry. It also details the binding of Loki's monstrous children (Fenrir and Jormungundr), the tragic death of Balder, and foretells the apocalyptic Ragnarok, where the gods and world are ultimately destroyed before a new cycle begins. The text includes a glossary of characters and places, and a bibliography of other works by Gaiman.
