Gods of the Ragnarok Era Complete Collection: Eschaton Cycle

By: Matt Larkin

Narrated by: Ulf Bjorklund

Before he was a god...Odin was a man.

Only a fool would venture into the soul-stealing mists. That’s exactly where Odin is going. Along with blood-brother Loki, he hunts the frost giant who murdered his father.

Caught between the machinations of Loki and a goddess, Odin is drawn into a world of sorcerers, trolls, and terrible secrets. Before he’s done, Midgard will drown in blood.

But what if revenge was only the beginning? A chance at immortality looms. If only he can bear the price....

This volume collects the complete nine-book series.

Good value, okay story, great narrator

I've only finished the first two books in the series, and have to take a break. The story isn't very compelling, and there are a lot of gratuitous sexual scenes (nothing extremely graphic though, but enough to make me cringe lol.) The chapters are very short, and as they jump between several main characters, it became a bit confusing. The narrator does do an excellent job however. I plan on finishing the series, but as other reviews have said, you have to take it in bits. Though 90+ hrs for one credit is too good of a deal to pass up. So, if you like vikings, battles, magic and monsters this is a great value.

Loki never dies

I like the way Oden learned that the cycle needed to change or nothing would stop repeating

Good overall

I picked this up because it was one credit, to my surprise it was a good listen.
I enjoyed it because it was long but did not feel drawn out, there is a lot of fighting but I kinda figured that based on the description. I would recommend this as a casual listen if you like Norse mythology.

Truly enjoyable and great

As a follower of the norse gods I truly enjoyed this take and story on their origins, it was a truly good series with a wonderful story of great characters and I found myself laughing a good bit through out the books.

best everrrrr

this is by far the best collection and reader ever. I'm listening again right after I'm done.
