The Rune-Gild is a school of esoteric knowledge based
on the Odian system of the Runes. The Gild is a world-
wide organization with Halls in North America, England
and Australia. Within the Gild there are works, such as the
Gildisbok,
which are otherwise unavailable to the general
public. If you are interested in joining the Gild, write a
letter of application for sponsorship to:
The Rune-Gild
P.O. Box 7622
Austin, Texas 78713
The letter should contain your legal name, address and any
information on your back-ground in Runic studies, areas of
special interests, and any other information you think the
Gild should know about you as an applicant for
sponsorship. Include a fee of $50.00 (USA) or $60.00
(foreign). If for any reason you can not be sponsored you
will receive the fee back along with an explanation. The
fee entitles you to one year's membership in the Gild, a
copy of the
Gildisbok,
and four numbers of the Gild's
official insider publication,
Rune-Kevels.
Note: The Gild cannot at this time accept members who
are in prison or otherwise incarcerated because our system
requires personal contact.

Introduction to the Germanic Tradition
Information on Runa-Raven Press
The mission of Runa-Raven goes beyond mere "book-
selling"— the purpose of Runa-Raven is
transformative.
Transformation occurs when
knowledge
is put into
action.
But for the changes to be strong and true, the knowledge
must be
accurate.
Runa-Raven's objective is to provide a
knowledgeable reading public with the best material in a
variety of "cutting edge" fields— with a concentration in
the area of Germanic lore and magic.
Runa-Raven's mission is to publish deeper level works
in the Germanic tradition that larger and more commercial
houses will not print. If the tradition is to be deepened and
developed beyond that superficial level, a deeper level of
literature must be produced. Also, we seek to publish
works that are on the leading or
cutting edge
of thought in
various areas of literature and esoterica. These tend to be
works that would probably otherwise go unpublished.
Please note that books published by Runa-Raven are
classified into three categories: The first are those books
which we try to distribute as widely as possible. These
may show up in your local bookstores with some
regularity. The second group includes those sold only to
certain "cutting edge" bookstores. While the third group
are those which are not available in bookstores, but which
are exclusively available by mail from Runa-Raven. Books
from all three categories are, of course, always available
from Runa-Raven directly.
To obtain a catalog of the complete line of Runa-Raven
titles, write to:

if you know the price of the book you want (see notes in
the bibliography) you can order books from Runa-Raven
by simply adding $4.00 for the first book and $1.00 for
each additional book for postage and handling.

A Note on Orthography
The text of this book contains some special characters
particular to the old Germanic languages. These are the

"th" and the edh may also be a "th," although it is also
often transcribed as a "dh" in some books.
