Gothic Myths and Legends is a modern creative retelling of the
surviving ancient Gothic stories and histories as preserved in the
writings of ancient Roman historians and Norse sagas. These are
combined with some of the author's own narrative and poetry. The
stories have been thoughtfully woven together into one long tale of
the Gothic gods, kings and heroes. The story of the Goths is told
in two parts: the "Gude Spill" or Story of the Gods begins with the
creation of the world and the divine origins of the Goths, and the
"Amale Spill" or Story of the Amali line of Gothic kings, as well
as their Balthic, Longobardic and Anglo-Saxon descendants. Also
included is a commentary on the Gude Spill which explains how the
primary sources have been woven together, and an English
translation of "The Battle of the Goths and Huns" from the Hervarar
Saga.
