Reader Reviews
A wonderful reference! The book is well written and explains how many myths across the globe are connected (myths about a flood, the sun, the moon, etc.). Anyone interested in the study of mythology should have this book on their shelf. For the Pagan readers out there, while this is not directed at Pagans (in other words, you won't learn how to cast a circle, etc.) I would very highly recommend it to understand the mythology surrounding your particular path, and how it relates to other cultures. Just about every culture is given a place in this book--from the various Native American cultures (North, Central and South) to the Celts, Middle East, Asian, and many more. Bottom line: A mythology lover's dream.
