Each oracle is rendered as a short poetic stanza rooted in Viking Age life. The book includes: an introduction; detailed instructions, including for group play and a social game; brief summaries of the history of the runes and the nine worlds; hints for interpreting the oracles; the 261 oracles; and example readings. The system has been tested and calibrated. For generating a quick oracle the book includes a pick-a-path system, requiring only the book.
