The best guide to the runes I have ever found
This is far and away the best guide to the runes I have yet found. I do have experience with rune stones and divination going back some years and did have some startling success helping my sister negotiate some terrible traumas in her life. Knowing that one should exercise caution because not everyone is totally trustworthy, I approached this book warily and was delighted to find it so sound. I heartily recommend it.

An Amazing Read! A Must Have!
I have this book and it is such an easy read. So much history included as well. You can tell the author truly cares about their craft and this subject matter. I learn something new every time I read it. A great coffee table book if you like to sit in your arm chair and read while chilling out or bedtime reading. Highly recommend.

Really good introduction to runes and the mythology related to them
This book is a very accessible and complete introduction to the runes. This is in part because of the way in which this book has been structured. Zara first gives you some background information about Norse culture and then goes on to give a very comprehensive summary of the most important myths related to runes. For those unfamiliar with Norse mythology she has also included a short overview of the most important Gods and Goddesses. When I started on my own journey with the runes, I missed this type of structure in the books I turned to, so it was a refreshing surprise to encounter this in Zara's book.What I like about Zara's interpretation of the runes is that it is very apparent that she did her research, but also made an effort to incorporate the meaning that she attributes to them herself. So I believe that this book would make an interesting addition to the bookshelves of even those well versed in runes.What I would have liked to see Zara do more is to actually tie some of the myths into her interpretation of the runes. This would have tied the section on rune lore more neatly together with the section discussing their meanings, which now feels a bit like a standalone section. Having said that, this may have made the explanations less accessible to those new to runes. So this may have been a conscious choice by the author.What I love about Zara's book is that it also comes with a lot of free extra's to help you understand and memorize the runes, which will be really helpful to first timers.Having said that, I believe this book is well worth a read, no matter where you are on your rune journey.

Introduction to the Runes - easy and fun to read
Great - another female author on this topic! This book is a well written introduction and overview on the Vikings, their Gods and the runes. I recommend this book to beginners.The author writes concise, capturing from the start, inviting and encouraging to learn more about the Norse and build a relationship with the runes. It is much like a Runes and the Norse in a Nutshell.The runes open up themselves to each of us differently and so we have to read every book as the story of fellow travellers, that we may share in parts - like walking the path with a companion - for a while, a part of the long way. But there are so many books on the runes out there for those who want to dive deeper.
