Welcome to CHAPTER 50 of the Kinsmen Die podcast, home of fantasy fiction based on Norse mythology that’s written and read by me, Matt Bishop.In this podcast I read my first novel, Kinsmen Die, one chapter at a time. And, with each episode, when it makes sense, I provide some commentary about the source materials I’ve referenced in the text.This week we’re back with Odin. It’s been a few chapters since we with him, but a lot’s happened. He’d sent the envoy away with a threat — either the Skyrmir tells me which Jotunn tribe destroyed Hals or I send Thor against you. We know from Loki’s chapter that the Skrymir will not divulge that info. So, let’s see how Odin handles rejection.We rejoin him now.Please visit the podcast's public site for the episode transcript, which includes the entire chapter.
