Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

More editing with audiobook
reader drops the "F" bomb when he makes a mistake and says
"Back in the back in the medieval times, charcoal and charcoal residue called coke, are primarily used to fuel the F*(k."
the sentence is then corrected saying Forge.
It did catch me off guard and made me laugh.

unpleasant to listen and unhelpful for a beginner
at one point in the book, the narrator messes up his lines and proceeds to yell fuck, pauses, and starts over. also his voice is very naisily and monotone which distracts from the actual book.
now onto the book itself. the author insists that water is the way to quench and I have it from all the judges on forged in fire that water is definitely NOT the way to go. I wish a master blacksmith would review this book and post a video of everything right or wrong.

Content is basic, but good.
The content is very high level blacksmithing information. The plans/instructions for tools in the end would be better in print than audio format. I didn't particularly care for the narrator. Often his diction and the inflection in his voice would throw me off as he would end a declarative statement as if it were a question or he wasn't sure.
Overall ok, but wish it had more than an hour of content to be worth a credit.

Very good guide
Where does Blacksmithing rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It is in the first position i loved it..
What was one of the most memorable moments of Blacksmithing?
A good book for as far as it goes. It touches on all the basics a beginner needs to know, but in some cases it doesn't do much more than touch.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I listened it by 2 sittings think so..
Any additional comments?
This book will give you a good rough outline, but you'll need to find something, or better yet someone else to fill in the gaps. This is a very good short book of the basics. There is a lot of steps that everyone needs.

Fantastic book. Highly recommended.
This is just a good book, it is really a good buy. Google the author to really get a idea of his experience and that experience is reflected in these books , full of good illustrations that match the paragraphs almost like he is teaching you right there by example and words . The author was a teacher of art for years and the book lay out matches that experience, I wish most how to books were written this way . A real joy to listen and learn from .
