Lore of the Vanir: A Brief Overview of the Vanir Gods

by C. Nico

This book examines the mythos of the Vanir gods, their spouses, servants, and closest friends found within the Norse Eddas and Sagas. Intended as a reference for both traditional heathens and Vanatru, each god or wight is examined in detail from verified literary and cultural sources. Also includes a listing of deities often associated with the Vanir whose true origin remains in question. UPG kept to a minimum unless particularly relevant. Includes select passages from Norse lore and other historical accounts such as the Germania.

Basic intro to Norse/ Germanic Gods

The author, admittedly is not an expert however, does bring to light a very simple look at the main Vanirian Deities for anyone not that familiar with the Germanic/ Norse Pantheons.

A good, brief introduction to the Vanir.

Not bad

Mostly well written. Some typos which always throw me off in a book. But the information was a bit more in depth than most websites.
