Nordic Tales

Folktales from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark

De: Chronicle Books

Narrado por: Allan Corduner, Juha Sorola

Trolls haunt the snowy forests, and terrifying monsters roam the open sea.

A young woman journeys to the end of the world, and a boy proves he knows no fear.

This collection of 16 traditional tales transports readers to the enchanting world of Nordic folklore. Translated and transcribed by folklorists in the 19th century, and presented here unabridged, the stories are by turns magical, hilarious, cozy, and chilling. They offer a fascinating view into Nordic culture and a comforting wintertime listen.

Great book of Scandinavia folk tales !

I would highly recommend listening to this book. Wonderful stories to hear that my foremothers may have told for generations.

Great story's

First time listening to books like these. Great readings and stories. I hope to find more like this.

Cool parallels to French, German, English tales

liked it a lot. this is just for the word count of the review.

Fantastic

Beautifully written, and wonderfully presented. These stories have been added to my ‘Favourites’ collection. They are an absolute treat and pair well with a mug of hot chocolate.

Interesting but…

My review should be read understanding that I am from a Norwegian family and so there is some built in bias towards a favourable review. That said I really did enjoy it. It has a nice scattering of tales and kept my interest.

This was great

This was great. I remember some of these stories from when I was young, but there were many more that I had not heard. I thoroughly enjoyed them all.

interesting stories for kids or adults

short book, a few interesting stories mostly for kids or adults who are fond of tales, good performance

Fantastic.

These are very good stories.
The readers who read these put a lot of emotion into them. They ave very exciting, entertaining, and enjoyable stories. I really enjoyed the first story from Finland partly because of my Finnish ancestry and also because it was very exciting and fun story I think you will enjoy.
