Varg Vikernes is a Norwegian musician, writer, and neo-paganism advocate, best known as the sole member of the one-man black metal project Burzum.

In addition to his music career, Vikernes has authored several books where he explores topics related to European mythology, paganism, and his personal beliefs. His works include titles like "The Secret of the She-Bear" and "Paganism Explained," which delve into ancient traditions and mythologies, aiming to shed light on the spiritual heritage of Europe. Despite his controversial past, Vikernes has continued to influence a segment of the metal and pagan communities with his writings and music, maintaining a dedicated following.
