Fascinating Maya Mythologies!

It is a very interesting series of books. I have been fascinated with mythology since I was a teenager and this was a great opportunity for me to read about several ancient mythologies around the world. Some of the info I already knew but there were much more detailed myths that I didn’t know. These books are also interesting because the author has included some of the history of each area

A fascinating guide.

A fascinating guide to learn more about mythology from these cultures - Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Celtic, and Roman. It is the book I love to read and it should be used in schools as required reading.

A good read on Maya Mythology.

A very interesting read on the history of Maya Mythology. There was a lot of content I had not known before. Very easy to read as chapters are short, and easy to understand.
