Edred Thorsson
Llewellyn Publications, second edition, 13th printing, 2016
High Praise for Northern Magic
"It can no longer be denied that Edred Thorsson is the leading Adept in the Germanic Mysteries."
author of Northern Mysteries & Magick
"This book is a concise presentation of the most essential elements of Edred Thorsson´s many years of work within the Teutonic tradition. Thorsson combines living folk tradition with ancient lore, and scholarship with magical experience, to bring forth the secret wisdom of our Northern ancestors in a practical and accessible form."
author of Teutonic Magic
"No one has done more than Thorsson to make the magic of the runes available to modern students, or been a stronger champion of the lost religion and culture of northern Europe. He is without question the authoritative voice in the rebirth of Teutonic magic. The material presented here on the Scandinavian runes and the New England hex-signs is fascinating, particularly because these subjects are almost never treated from the perspective of practical occultism."
author of Rune Magic
"A fine synthesis of the best of Thorsson´s previous writings with some very interesting new material, such as working with Pennsylvania Dutch ´hex´ signs and going on an authentic Viking vision quest."

The names Edred Thorrson and Darban-i-Den are pseudonyms of Stephen E. Flowers.
While Edred Thorrson was a significant influence on Heathenry in the 90s and turn of the century,
nowadays he is strongly associated with The Asatru Folk Assembly.
In a recent statement, The Asatru Folk Assembly declared point blank
that non-white and LGBT Heathens were not welcome in their tradition.
The Asatru Folk Assembly views do not represent our views at all!!!
