"Ye who would listen to an ancient tale
Of days when this old world of ours was young;
Of gods and giants, water-maidens, dwarfs;
Of magic rings and swords and treasure hoards, --
Draw near in reverence, for the tale is true
Of time primeval and of latest days, --
A parable of the strange curse of gold."

Chiron Classics is proud to present, for the first time in e-book format, Richard Wagner's complete NIBELUNGEN RING saga retold in poetic narrative form by Oliver Huckel and illustrated by Arthur Rackham. This beautifully realized ballad adaptation of Wagner's epic opera cycle was first published in four installments between 1907 and 1911, and is now together in one handsome e-book volume. Also included are Arthur Rackham's revered illustrations for the cycle that were published separately during the same period, providing the perfect complement to Huckel's stirring verse.

Chiron Classics provides the very best in digital reading, with carefully formatted editions of special selections from the world's greatest classic literature.
