Description
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 read my first book, Kinsmen Die, chapter by chapter.
I believe I’ve done something unique when it comes to the retelling those old stories. The point of view characters in my books are the characters from the myths 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 two main 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.
Kinsmen Die has 92 chapters. Dark Grows the Sun is about half that. So, this is gonna take a while. I truly hope you enjoy the journey.
You can find me online here.
