Hard to navigate the book.

The stories that are told are good, for me who is totally new to mythologies it's helpful to have so many introductions to different mythologies.

With that said, the book would be so much better if there was an index for all chapters, now they are just numbered.
It's not smooth at all if you want to skip something or revise

Great book, story and performance.

love it. was easy to follow and very enlightened. I was amazed to hear about HATSHEPSUT in the Egyptian story. I studied her in college and was fascinated by the things she accomplished.

not too bad but some errors

there are some audio errors.
also some textual errors where whole gods and beifs are confused or mixed up. it needs a review.

I very recommend a beginner to mythology listen to this book

He got the names of some of the gods wrong but overall not too bad

so amazing and informational

this is a great book to listen to on the way to work or to relax. So many stories and tales to excite the mind and allow a deeper understanding of the mindset of ancient people. my only complaint is that I wish that there were more stories about African, Polynesian,Native American
stories.

Meh.

This author's writing is belabored and redundant, and too much of his information is either incorrect or incompletely presented. He sometimes fails to convey the point of the myth, offering a series of events with no climax or lesson. He does offer a decent handshake with world mythology, however. You'll be familiar with some of the important names and places by the end. As an aside, Oliver Hunt is a very pleasant narrator.

good start. not good place to stop.

the asian and indian name pronunciation is a bit painful for me, and the later Egyptian stuff feels . . . . not sure fake is the right word, fabricated or plagerised. a Cinderella story where the protagonist grew up listening to fables directly from Aesop. seems like a fanfic of the highest order.
that said, the tales are a good starter for digging deeper.

Good, Editing Needs Work

Overall good audio book. Only real complaint is the editing could use work. There were times when you could here pages being turned or the narrator would stop and then restart the previous sentence.

long but good

this book is as good as it is long. I listened to it when I was running.

Enjoyable

Loved it! A lot of information.
Will listen to again. Will take notes next time for future books to continue learning on certain ones.
