About this audiobook
This audiobook features a special tribal ambient version of the full text in addition to the raw narration.
These are the words of Odin the High One. Hávamál is presented as a single poem in the Icelandic Codex Regius, a collection of Old Norse poems from the Viking age. The poem, itself a combination of numerous shorter poems, is largely gnomic, presenting advice for living, proper conduct, and wisdom. It is considered an important source of Old Norse philosophy.

Ruined. This was by far the best rendition available anywhere. Recently the files with/without ambient music were merged, cutting off the beginning of the ambient version. It was careless and needs to be fixed. For some of us this is a religious text and a regular affirmation, or at the very least a connection to a cultural identity. For such a fine recording of such a serious subject matter and source material, it deserved better than this.
