From the ashes arises the sacred lore of the North, the ancient stories and proverbial wisdom of the satr religion. Mighty Gods and fierce Giants battle in the never-ending struggle between order and chaos, while men seek honor and glory in the eyes of their beloved deities. After many years of research and piecing together sources, now comes the first known holy text ever presented for the satr faith. Giving these ancestral accounts in their true, epic form, The satr Edda is designed as a religious work by and for the men and women of this path. In reconstructing this sacred epic, the idea is to create a living storytelling tradition that will honor the legacy of the ancient Teutonic peoples, while providing an in-depth source of satr wisdom for our modern world.

The Othala Edda is the result of the culmination of years of meditation, research and worship of Odin. Within this text you will find a large section of Lays from The Poetic Edda translated into modern-day English with comprehensive notes on each stanza. I have also included interpretations of sections of The Heimskringla to provide a historical insight into our religion. It was my goal to create a text which encompasses what I believe to be "Essential Odinism". This work took several grueling months to write, review, and format. We had the help of great artists Dan Moreschi and Tony Sahara who also helped us with our first book "Odin's Chosen: A Handbook of Asatru". This is a great book for anyone, whether you are beginning to read the Lays or have read the Lays and need an extra hand in deciphering those Lays. We hope everyone enjoys reading this book as much as we did creating it.

Robert Sass has been studying and practicing Heathenry for twenty years. The goal of this book is to educate Heathens on ""how to do"" Heathenry, based on a historical perspective first. How to do Sumble and Blot based on historical passages, as well as educating Heathens on the various Germanic Heathen calendars that survived from the 8th, 9th, and 10th centuries. Truly bringing the Old Ways into Heathenry based on solid research, as oppossed to just saying ""We do the Old Ways."" If this book does not have at least ten times as many historical sources, Edda, and Saga passages quoted than any other Asatru 101 book on the market, I will be most disappointed. I quote sources left and right. Studying where our Ancestors left off is essential.
