Publisher's summary

If you're looking for a captivating collection of Inca myths, then pay attention....

The myths of the Inca gods in the first section of the audiobook explain how the world was created and also detail the adventures of various deities as they vie for supremacy or act as tricksters in the worlds of mortals and huacas alike. The second section contains the origin myth of the Inca Empire, which was used to justify Inca political legitimacy. This section also presents other tales involving the mythologized deeds of Inca emperors and their interactions with divine beings.

The final section contains a collection of Andean folktales and a prose narrative version of the 18th-century drama Apu Ollantay, which may have been based on an ancient Inca tale and which tells the story of the forbidden love between Cosi-Collyur, daughter of the Inca Pachacuti, and the brave warrior Ollantay, whose name also graces the Inca fortress of Ollantay-tambo just north of Cuzco.

Inca Mythology: Captivating Inca Myths of Gods, Goddesses, and Legendary Creatures invites you to go on a startling journey and discover:

  • Stories of the Gods
  • Inca political myths
  • Five Andean folktales and an Inca play
  • And much, much more!

Lovely stories

The peoples of America had rich wonderful myths that have largely been forgotten. This is especially and sadly true of the myths of the Andean peoples. I was delighted to find this book on Audible. It is a small step into atheir mythological universe but a beautiful and exciting step!

More than the basic stories

It is so hard to find content on the Inca outside of just a couple of stories. This book does a great job of finding and telling more from such an incredible history and mythology.
