Revered since the Viking Age, Odin has been called the greatest of the gods--the god of words and wisdom, runes and magic, a transformer of consciousness, and a trickster who teaches truth. He is both war god and poetry god, and he is the Lord of Ravens, the All- Father, and the rune master.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-sleek-node-id=\"990acd\" class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eOdin: Ecstasy, Runes, and Norse Magic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-sleek-node-id=\"90acd5\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis the first book on Odin that is both historically sourced and accessible to a general audience.
