So much gratitude for these audiobooks to help not only aide in sleep, but just resting my eyes while I let my mind take a break from processing the loss of my fiancé. I’m in recovery as an addict who’s been on a rotation of sleep medication or minimum smoking weed since I was around 14 years old. Having patience with even sleep right now, is a constant battle that I appreciate this tool to assist me with ❤️ thank you!
Thank you. "For Sleep" Wow. It took me nearly two weeks to get through this book. I fell asleep so fast !!! Rewind--- Sleep ---- Rewind--- LOL Great stories. More??? Please!!!
Can I ask you something? How did you find the channel? Also, what words were you searching for? Your answer might help me create titles that help more people like you find the channel!
@@sleepaudiobooks I searched "audio books" and your artwork caught my eye ...I'll most likely make my way through your entire channel. Life's rough, so I enjoy being able to find even the slightest bit of exciment
@@WolfPeace82 I’m sorry to hear. Hopefully this channel has a lot you’ll enjoy. There are a lot of different readers. Also I’m always open to requests. But I try to keep it to just stories in public domain. So anything before 1925 is typically fair game
This book was one of the things that helped me during my last bid&has a good bit(I'm quite sure)to do with me learning a life that had me putting much more into life and alot less into death.
All of our pre history, all of which was lost in the Twilight of the Gods, is our History. It's all there in our mythology, so much truth, it's all that survived the great flood. I can't be the only one who sees this?!
Immortal Vanyar, elves, dwarves delving in the earth, making great works.... mighty eagles.... magic rings..... even Children of Odin/Children of Hurin. Although this was written in 1920 by Padriac Colum and based on ancient stories of Northern Europe, I'm stunned by how similar this is to themes in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. Clearly J.R.R. had to have been hugely influenced by these stories, and the legends they are based on! He had to have read this. The exception I think is Loki, this central figure that is both bad and good. I don't see any parallel to this character anywhere in Tolkien's stories.
In fact, my native language is not really English (I am kind of from the other side of the mirror, if I might say so) but I understand everything what you're reading .May I consider myself as an English Speaker, after all? Anyway, thank you for doing this. I'm glad to listen to that before I go to bed.
One of the BEST tools for sleep are these face masks: amzn.to/3JnPOik They are padded so no pressure on the eyes, and the mask shape + thick material blocks out all light. (other masks can leak light around the nose) There's an adjustable strap so it's comfortable and I (Mich) personally take one with me wherever I go. (Purchasing one through this affiliate link has no additional cost and helps support the channel)
The story about Loke, didn't just end with him getting his lips sewn shut. After this. He ripped them open, and now have horrible scars of where the tread once was. + Loke (Loki) aren't the doer of good and doer of evil. He's the mischievous one. He loves to prank and mess with people. But he's no more evil than you are capable of flying, by flapping your arms. I understand that a non scandinavian writer might get our history, religion, and mythology some what wrong.
@@sleepaudiobooks I'm not sure about the public domain, but there are so many mythology and traditional stories to be told. I hope you find some for us.
We still do have different types of giants. Those whose breed with humanity and those who decided to bid in the mountains and those who decided to die and make mountains.
Thor told Odin not to let this man build the wall. You missed that part because Thor had a strong feeling about this "man". He was right. Thor wanted to hurt the man. But Odin and Loki wouldn't let Thor
Aaaaaaaargh, Elizabeth Klett has a great voice and perfect pitch and tempo, why have slowed this down? It's painful to hear what you've done to it......!!!!!!
I agree the narrators voice is great. I slowed it down because this channel is specifically designed to help people fall asleep. I often get complaints that the voice is too fast. So I slow it down. I have the link to the librivox page in the description so there's always an option to listen to the original. I'm sorry you don't like how it sounds now, I can imagine having been familiar with her voice it is jarring to hear it altered.
You know, pretty much immediately after I left that message it occurred to me that that's exactly why. My bad, sorry for jumping that gun all smart and knowing all what I was talking about n that just to realise straight away what nip I am. I mean it tho, I apologise. Great channel btw. I'm a dick, frown

It’s a trip finding books that influenced more recent popular stories. You can kinda see the thread going back to previous generations
But I see many similarities in real people in 21st century (and centuries past) that mirror elements of Loki
