Hail! I’ve recently started listening to your Spoken Lore and Raven Cast podcasts, and enjoying them. Thanks for providing them! You solicited ideas for the next saga, now that we are getting to the end of Grettir … I’d vote for one of the Fornaldar sagas, but I’m sure whatever you guys end up picking will be good. Cheers, Karen
