Norse Myth -- Kinsmen Die Ch 58: Odin eyes his future
Welcome to CHAPTER 58 of the Kinsmen Die podcast, home of fantasy fiction based on Norse mythology that’s written and read by me, Matt Bishop.
In this podcast I read my first novel, Kinsmen Die, one chapter at a time. And, with each episode, when it makes sense, I provide some commentary about the source materials I’ve referenced in the text.
We’re back with Odin in this chapter. While rescuing his uncle Mimir from a trap in the spirit world, Odin was badly wounded by a draugr. Last chapter we were with Frigg; she and Mimir conversed while Odin lay mostly unconscious nearby — though he was awake long enough to say he would raise Angrboda from the dead to get answers from her about the weird ritual in her house—which is where Mimir was trapped. At the end of the last chapter Frigg left to fetch Sleipnir so that she could get Odin back to Baldr for more thorough healing. So, Odin is awake now and kinda not happy.
