Originally published in 1994, this volume serves as a companion to *The Cult of Ódinn: God of Death?* but also stands independently as a detailed study of Odin, known by many names including Ódinn, Woden, Wuotan, and others. The Troth is proud to reissue this important work, making it accessible once again to those interested in Norse and Germanic traditions.

Additionally, the book lists and explains Odin’s many names found in Old Norse poetry, shedding light on the rich linguistic and cultural tapestry surrounding this complex deity.
*Miscellaneous Studies towards the Cult of Ódinn* is an excellent resource for anyone seeking to understand the nature of Odin, the ancient and mysterious god of the Germanic-speaking peoples.
