<p>Thanks so much! I'd hate to jump blindly into my studies on this path. I'll look into your suggestions. :)</p>

<p>An easy one is probably Diana Paxson. Though I would take what she says with a grain of salt, at least from my memory her book was accessible and understandable. Another great author one should look into is Bil Linzie. Mark Ludwig Stinson has some great beginner books too like <a href="http://heathengods.com/temple/modules/wmpdownloads/" target="_blank">Heathen Gods</a>.

<p>An easy one is probably Diana Paxson. Though I would take what she says with a grain of salt, at least from my memory her book was accessible and understandable. Another great author one should look into is Bil Linzie. Mark Ludwig Stinson has some great beginner books too like <a href="http://heathengods.com/temple/modules/wmpdownloads/" target="_blank">Heathen Gods</a>. Again, these are good books for beginners but check their sources. Heathen Gods, for example is a good book for introducing one to Germanic Heathenry but perpetuates an urban myth "we dont kneel before our gods" that is contested in the lore. As mentioned below, Wodening is a good read. His books have a lot of spelling errors and whatnot though so you might want to just go to his blog or the website Englatheod. Check out the <a href="http://heathengods.com/temple/modules/library/" target="_blank">library at Temple of Our Heathen Gods</a>, and their forum too. They have some gems there. </p> tag:realpagan.net,2012-03-13:6330711:Comment:167944 2012-03-13T17:42:02.724Z Airlia Skye http://realpagan.net/profile/AirliaSkye

Thank you for the heads up, Liofrun. Anyone have any good book suggestions for aspiring Heathens?

<p>I have not actually read his books as I am not sure what would be in them that is different than on his blog or the Wodening's Englatheod website. I do believe he knows his stuff though.</p>

<p>Out of curiosity, have you read any of Swain Wodening's book on Germanic Heathenism?  I've met the man on a couple of occasions and he seems to know his stuff...but I'm not a Germanic Recon so I'd love to hear the opinion of someone more familiar with the material than I am.</p>
