    About this audiobook

    Runes are the ancient Norse alphabet used for communication, divination, and magical work. In Futhark, American runologist Edred Thorsson introduces listeners to the 24 runes of the Elder Futhark, their definitions, and mystic properties.

    The runic system of magic and mysticism is one of the most powerful forms of metaphysical thought available to the Western world. The audio edition of this bestselling classic book on Runes is required listening for those who seek true knowledge of the mystery of the Runes.

    Thorsson's presentation of this powerful system is lucid and profound and provides a valuable tool for spiritual transformation and self development. Futhark is expertly narrated by Brian Arens, an Audible Listener favorite.
