A lot of good information.
Despite the poor English translation, unusual pronunciations and hesitation before native words, this book is not that bad. I would suggest going back and changing the words "kid/kids" with the words "child/children" and the words "guy/guys" with the words "man/men".

All the myths combined
Yes, makes sense. Why not bundle all the books in one? Maybe because that gives you a too-good-to-be-true deal if you have a credit? Man, how is this author make her money back from that? I don't know how it all works, but I do know when I see a good deal, such as this one.

Liked it a lot
I listened to this audiobook, and it was definitely motivational. Not only did this audiobook seem like it was top quality, but it also showed me essential things about daily life, and about this theme in particular, of course. So, it absolutely deserves a couple of hard-earned stars.

Doesn't deserve anything less than 5 stars
I guess I could go over each one of these books and mention all the strong points and the few weaknesses. I'm not a professional reviewer, so sorry, but that would take an eternity to figure all out to me, so I am just going to leave it at a few bullet points.
- First, the value. It's almost 37 hours. What else can I say? Get a credit and get it.
- Second, the interesting fact that all these stories have their own twists, their own cultural backgrounds, etc. But in a sense, some of the gods and goddesses share some commonalities. For example, most of these cultures have a fertility god or goddesses, a main god, a god of death, of creation, and all the main themes. And then there are the creatures, the fairies, the spirits, and the legendary heroes. Very much fun to listen to. It sparks the imagination. Strange to me that people believed these kinds of things, but then again, it might not be so different from believing anything invisible, including our own belief in an almighty God somewhere in the universe.
- Third, the narration was great. I mean, it wasn't perfect. But I liked it.
- Fourth, I cannot even begin to mention how much time it must have taken to put a bundle together like that. Doing so goes to show how much this author or publisher respects its customers.
- Fifth, I knew about Greek gods, something about Viking gods, etc. But Indian ones and Egyptian ones were pretty strange and new to me. This is another reason why I enjoyed it. It's like learning something I didn't already know.
Well, there, you have it. Like I said, it's not 100% perfect. But in my opinion, great value and great enjoyment (I keep using that word "great") for a gre.... uhm... good price. That's it.

How can I not? It's got all those myths and gods and... yeah, it's great. It is what it says it is, no less. No deception there. It's truly all the mythological stories and backgrounds of the cultures of these countries.

Decent writing, horrible robo speak
The robo reading of this book makes it very hard to enjoy. This book is not read by a human and this book on mythology seems very sterile. I regret this purchase because this topic needs a human voice.

So poorly done not worth listen to even if free
I only managed to push through African and most of Celtic Mythology, and it wasn't worth finishing this audiobook.
Reader is a bit bland, and stubles of difficult words (fair enough, but audio editting should remove those sorts of things), but does get better over time.
Random use of theasurus, many words changed without consideration that they are homographs making the new sentence nonsensical.
Africa
Author needs a proof-reader as there is some clunky language and there things like describing multiple creatures as vampires followed by sayiong another creature is the clossest thing to a vampire, likely latter part written first. Otherwise content is quite good.
The humour is not for me, but that isn't inherently a bad thing.
Author is very respectful to the various cultures and mythologies at start, but the traditions of Africans in America are referied to as 'monkey business' and 'hellish exercises' both terms are used as pejoratives.
Someone clearly used a search-and-change function to substitute Slave for Servant as the Slave Coast is renamed Servant Coast (the bight of Africa has had many names over time, but never Servant Coast) this is made more clunky as they missed derived words such as enslavers. It feels subversive to censor the word slave, they could avoid the topic if they really insisted, but downplaying feels unsavoury.
Tone changes so much as the book goes on it is hard to believe it is written by one author. It starts very casual and jovial, becomes slightly deprecating and dismissive, to incredibly dry and formal. again, something a proof-reader could have assisted with.
Overall content is great, very detail dense, but I like that. delivery is wanting, needs a proof-reader, pronunciation coaching, and better audio editing.

DO NOT LIKE the chapter title "truths and history of the powerful and superior people of Central and Northern Europe." hard to interprete as anything other than straight up biggoted.
Reader often pauses before reading difficult words, there should be more post production editing to smooth this over.
This feels like it was written by a highschool student who copy pasted paragraphes and changed words to avoid plagiarism, things like changing men to guys, friends to buddies, and most awkwardly, changing giant to huge even when talking about giants. Maybe this is how the author speaks but it definitly feels off.
