About
The coolest and grooviest of ancient literature read in a variety of historic languages, with videos uploaded from a growing number of languages including Old Norse, Latin, Greek, Gothic, and Coptic Egyptian. I also make regular readings from classic English literature. My name is Jordan Ashley Moore, and I write science fiction and fantasy in addition to loving books both ancient and modern.
