Our latest @vikingologypodcast.bsky.social episode discusses paganism in modern times and how the far right has abused it. Luckily, we're on Substack, not YouTube, so we won't be canceled for saying the word "neo-pagan." vikingology.substack.com/p/a-new-book... #vikingsky #history #politics

The Landnámabók is among the earliest works of history produced by medieval Iceland. The "true" story of Thorir's son Steinrod the Strong here is worth a look.

A reminder about orcs for #dnd fans. Beowulf's eotenas ond ylfe ond orcneas, "ogres and elves and demon-corpses", inspiring Tolkien to create orcs and other races. Orcneas are very definitely in When the Wolf Comes. And they ain’t pretty.
