Are these stories the actual stories from Norse mythology? They sound like the ones I've hear from other sources. Only asking because im trying to do research on Norse Mythology :)

As always, I would be delighted to read your thoughts about the piece, in terms of style and what it brings to you. Thanks for listening!
00:00:00 - Settling in...

❤
Part Three: Stories of Thor
01:14:54 - 7. Thor and the Sea Serpent
I love the passion behind the story. And I'm sorry to be petty but 28:12 where you pronounce maniacally as Maniac-aly, when its pronounced men-eye-a-kali.
Again I'm terribly sorry to be petty. But there are a lot of weird words in norse mythology, so i would have thought normal words won't be an issue. Maybe its my autism speaking. I have no other gripe you really are great
01:27:18 - 8. Thor's Wedding Day
01:44:06 - 9. Thor and the Frost Giants
Love your voice, thank you for your content. ❤

Hail Odin
02:11:08 - 11. Thiazi and the Golden Apples

https://youtu.be/7Z8ygNxsveg?si=GwN_AWwyjA8hFGvA ❤I'd love to hear this story sung about in this song.
04:05:26 - 17. Ragnarok
04:12:25 - 18. A New Beginning
Have you heard of the band named Garmarna? Their music is about myths as well but their sung in Dutch i would like to hear you do their Varulven song or others of their stories 😊
04:15:06 - Where the Norse Myths Came From
04:17:27 - Closing Thoughts...
1st off, I am a follower of the old Gods, I DO ABSOLUTELY believe in them. I believe they are one and the same as the Slavic, Celtic , and Roman Gods give or take and names only changed bc people migrated. I call them though by they're Norse names.
Also Friday is up for debate if it's named after Frigg or Freyja, and some believe they're one and the same.
Hail Odin! Hail Freyja! Hail Tye!
What a little treasure trove of exciting and inspiring stories the Norse Myths are! I hope you found something special in listening to them.
------------------------------------------------------------------

This was absolutely outstanding. I listened to this over the course of several days, whenever I could find time. And I always look forward to each story. Thank you so much for creating this and for the atmosphere of the crackling fire and folks gathered to hear a storyteller. That greatly added to the experience.

Your first version was the best. Please go back to that.
This was I enjoyed most
My friend, what you did, is beautifull.
Thank you for all hard work.
And spacially, your voice of reading.
After Andy Serkis and LotR audiobook, you are the best
Yeah my omnistic ass is just chilling to this😂
@MostCharmingSlytherinEver.Swedish woman viking pagan and I love ❤your way to tell stories. Thank you so much!!!
@MichellePalmAm from Norway Klæbu bikebeiner
@SidneyTømmervoldThis was phenomenally entertaining to listen to! You, my friend, are an AMAZING storyteller!!! 🏆
@Sukna5679My goodness, Steven, you are a masterful storyteller! And this was a fabulously entertaining collection of myths, enlivened by your expressive voice. You give every character his or her unique voice, perfectly depicting each distinct personality. I'm struck by the arrogant, brutish and violent egos of the Asyr of Asgard, and relieved about who gets to remain to caretake the new world (trying not to spoil the end.) As a woman, my favorite is the love story between Brunhilda and the man whose name I've forgotten. All the other stories are full of male bravado.
@flamissia4Thank you so much for this!! I love how easy it is to hear the different characters, what an amazing job! Please consider reading other myths like Egyptian and Greek. ❤
@Vi3tHoneyXI keep coming back to this one, probably listened to it 10x. Thank you so much for actually reading it and not outsourcing to awful AI voices.
@candidapple293Im 90 seconds in and i didn't realize this was comedy stuff. Is it a joke?
@ExxylcrothEagleSometimes I wonder why should we follow a Middle Eastern religion
@naugladur8534Thank You, sometimes I play this while I am typing or doing something on my laptop. It is very soothing and bring me faraway from this present world into the realms of imagination
@dinarrahayu4023Thank you
@dinarrahayu4023Wonderful reading ❤❤❤ thank you so much for this 💜💙💎
@randomchannel83838I see you went for a...Youtube friendly version of Gjálp and the "river."
@austinjones8964Listening to this to help me convert pagans 🫓🍷🗿🗿🗿
@TradleyI am American and ever since I was a young boy I have been drawn to Vikings and Viking culture. Never understood why until I did an Ancestry DNA test and found that I have 60 percent Scandanavian DNA and 30 percent Irish DNA and 10 percent Germanic DNA. It's literally in my blood and I feel it everyday of my life. That feeling of wanting to explore and just wanting to travel and learn. I do consider myself a modern Norseman of the Americas and will be till my dying breath. Anyway, I truly thank you for these epic tales and hope all is well with you and your family wherever you may be. Be well my friend and thank you once again.
@DudleyHambyvery good!
@Stev-t5nBro I feel bad for bros voice.
@Nic0DiAng3lo-WillsManAm a Ugandan after listening to the audio I feel illuminated😊😊😊
