The Troth is an organization that unites people around the world who worship
and honor the old Gods and Goddesses of the Germanic peoples. There are
many different traditions within this religion, including Ásatrú, Theodism,
Odinism, and others—but what unites us all is deep love for the old Gods and
Goddesses, for our worthy ancestors, and for the values expressed in our
myths and stories. We work every day to rebuild our ancient religion and bring
it into the modern world, while staying true to our ancient roots.
The Troth publishes an expanding line of books, as well as a quarterly journal,
Idunna. We aim to be a resource for all who would learn more about our ways.

Heroes of the Heathen past deal with giants and dragons, battle armies and sorcerors, and even encounter the old Gods now and then. Most of these legendary sagas, or fornaldarsögur, have never been translated before, or else are hard to find in English. We provide full bibliographies and complete commentary to help you understand these tales in context. Whether you’re a serious scholar of mythology, or just love Viking adventures, you’ll want these! |
