The Kinsmen Die Podcast - The Kinsmen Die Podcast: Teaser Episode

Welcome to the Kinsmen Die podcast, home of fantasy fiction based on Norse mythology that’s written and read by me, Matt Bishop.

I’ve written two novels – Kinsmen Die and Dark Grows the Sun. They are the first two books in my series called And the Heavens Burn. In this podcast I will read both books and, when it’s finally finished, that third, concluding book in the series.

My goal is to share my love of Norse mythology and, obviously, my books. I believe I’ve done something unique when it comes to retelling these old stories. The point of view characters in my books are the Aesir themselves: Odin and Frigg. Vidar. Hodr. Loki. And, because the dude is awesome and has a really tough name to pronounce: Vafthrudnir.

Everything you’ll hear is based on my interpretation of the source materials – the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, along with a stack of books that discuss the myths … and another stack of academic articles that do the same.

Right now, I’m planning to read one chapter per week. Every five episodes will be a combination recap and explication of how I incorporated the myths and why I made the choices I did – without spoilers!
