Valkyries: Guardians of Valhalla, Divine Warriors of Odin, and Choosers of the Slain

DARWIN, Australia - EntSun -- Independent author Peta Oakes, writing as Gaelic Mac Dubhdara, announces the release of Valkyries: Guardians of Valhalla, Divine Warriors of Odin, and Choosers of the Slain, a new volume exploring the legendary warrior maidens of Norse mythology and their enduring place within the Viking imagination.

Serving Odin as the Choosers of the Slain, the Valkyries occupy one of the most iconic roles in Scandinavian mythology. Riding across the battlefield, they selected the bravest warriors to dwell in Valhalla, where they would prepare for Ragnarök, the final battle of the gods.

Drawing upon the Poetic Edda, Prose Edda, Norse sagas, archaeology, and comparative mythology, Valkyries explores the origins, symbolism, and mythology of these remarkable divine figures. The book examines their relationship with Odin, Valhalla, fate, heroic death, sacred kingship, and the cosmology of the Nine Worlds while introducing readers to legendary Valkyries including Brynhildr, Sigrún, Göndul, and Hildr.
