I posted about this to cultofapollo and on the Neokoroi list, but I know that there are people on my friends list who will also find this interesting

Has anyone heard of The Gods Remain: Old European Religion as Found in Greece, the Germanic Countries and Elsewhere by Thomas Sefton?

I don't know anything about this book, but it looks very interesting. The author sees to have a lot of interest in comparing Apollo and Odin. I just discovered it on Amazon and then noticed a comments that a few chapters were available on the publishers website. Turns out that four chapters, plus shortened versions of all chapters, plus a couple of essays are available on the website, so I started skimming the chapter Oidipous: Devotee of Apollon.

In addition to the Apollo intererst, there is a chapter on the site that would be relevant to anyone with an interest in Odin:

(assuming that the information is good, of course. I just found this and haven't started reading much of it yet, too busy saying "Oooh, lookee here" to everyone first.)

Here also is the main page:

If anyone is familiar with the book or has thoughts after reading any of the material available on the site, I'd be interested in hearing it.
