Bedtime Stories for Adults: Vikings & Nordic Tales (Nature Sounds Edition)

Not Your Average Bedtime Story, Book 2

De: Tranquil Voyage Audiobooks

Narrado por: Charles Featherstone

Let the raw forces of nature guide you home to rest. Real field recordings from remote forests bring primal life to every sound.

This isn’t just a bedtime stories audiobook—it’s a sensory immersion into Norse myth, ancient lands, and untamed wilds.

Drift into the world of Viking legends wrapped in the natural rhythms of the earth—from the gentle rustle of pines and distant thunder, to the primal hum of sacred flame and midnight wind. These aren’t polished studio effects. They’re unfiltered nature sounds—captured to calm the body and captivate the spirit.

Each story unfolds like a timeless ritual, guiding you out of overthinking and into a world where myth meets earth, and rest comes not through silence—but through elemental presence.

This edition is for those who feel most grounded in the wilderness.
For those whose nervous systems don’t respond to clinical calm, but to wild serenity.

Inside, you'll find:

• Atmospheric Nordic tales drawn from ancient myths—retold with hypnotic pacing and reverence for the sacred
• Field-recorded natural audio—wind through pine forests, embers crackling in fire rings, waves kissing distant shores
• A sleep rhythm rooted in the primal—crafted to soothe your system not with stillness, but with sound that feels alive
• An alternative to synthetic calm—for those who crave something real, ancient, and deeply felt

These aren’t just stories. They’re thresholds—to slower states, deeper rest, and quiet wonder.

If you long for rest that reconnects you with something ancient and real...

If you’re drawn to tales told beside the fire, under the stars, with the wild night humming all around you...

You’re in the right place.

Close your eyes. Let the stories rise like mist.

And fall asleep to the sound of the world before it was tamed.

A Beautiful Escape Into Myth and Nature

This audiobook is unlike anything I’ve listened to before. The blend of Norse storytelling and real nature sounds is incredibly immersive. The tales are told in a calm, rhythmic voice that gently draws you into ancient worlds. The natural ambiance wind, crackling fire, distant thunder feels so authentic, it’s like falling asleep in the forest.

Very cool audiobook- definitely immersive

This was such a unique audiobook! I haven't heard of adult bedtime stories before and certainly have never listened to one, but it was actually really cool. The sounds in the background really do make you feel like you are in the dark in the woods while the narration really draws you into the drama of the stories. The sounds and the suspense/drama were a bit too exciting to lull me to sleep, but if your intention is to listen to the stories in full BEFORE falling asleep, then would work amazingly well. Definitely immersive like advertised.

A wonderful audibook to take you into the story

I was a bit hesistant about buying a bedtime book for adults but this audiobook exceeded my expectations. It had great stories that kept me guessing right till the end mixed with great narration and sounds as well. I felt like I was really in the atmosphere of the book and it made it even more real. Maybe I will be buying more bedtime stories for adults!! I would definitely recommend

Awesome nordic mythology listen

Super unique audiobook that has the sights and sounds of nordic mythology (the best) and includes a bunch of what I would call soothing sounds for your average guy! Really cool idea here and I'd love to see more of this type of product going against the grain. Fantastic work by the narrator and tranquil voyage.

Perfect for Nature Lovers and Restless Minds

As someone who finds traditional white noise too sterile, this audiobook was a revelation. The field recordings waves, fire, wind feel authentic and grounding. Paired with calming Norse legends, it creates a beautifully meditative space for rest. I didn’t expect storytelling to help me sleep, but the pacing and voice are so soothing. This is the first sleep aid that actually speaks to my nervous system in a language it understands: the wild. I’ve used it every night since I downloaded it.

It's your lullaby

Bedtime stories for adults in Vikings & Nordic Tales? I didn't expect this book with a special theme to have a sleeping pill-like for those who have insomnia. The natural sounds full of texture blend with the story to help you fall asleep naturally. It gently relieves accumulated stress and tension differently than other audiobooks and brings you a day of good sleep. I had my mother listen to it, who usually has trouble sleeping. And she confirmed the effect of falling into a peaceful sleep. I recommend it to those with difficulty sleeping for a comfortable sleep and a dream trip to European mythology. What a great book!
