About this audiobook
Join Billy Goats Gruff for an adventure of epic proportions!
This is the legendary story of three billy goats who set out in search of utopia. The journey was preserved by generations through Scandinavian folklore. Even so, this fabled tale of good and evil is only part of a greater adventure, which was lost. It has now been found, and the saga of the three goats is finally available in its entirety.
“A thoughtful and engaging tale that uses the fable of the “Three Billy Goats Gruff” to probe philosophical questions which are deeply relevant for our times.”

It is an interesting twist which in some ways reflects current society while still retaining its mythological background."
