Norse Mythology -- (AtHB) Kinsmen Die Ch 90: Vaft cradles a new hope


Listen Later

Welcome to CHAPTER 90 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.

This week, we’re back with Vafthrudnir. The last time we were with him, he’d been badly wounded in a fight with Freyja.

Let’s rejoin him, now.

I used Google Gemini for this week's show art.
