This is a well written easy to comprehend book on the Mayan, Aztecs, and Incas mythologies. It kind of feels like you are listening to cliff notes for an exam but adds a significant amount of detail to the topics. I recommend it.

the excellent scholarship is spit upon, it seems, by the horrible pronunciation of the characters by the narrator. Like trying to appreciate a lovely aria whilst someone backstage can’t stop coughing. Arghhhhhn

Horrible pronouncing of names

Most books show the Mesoamericans as a unified people, this book dispels that notion with a clearer picture of how they were organized. From the beginning, through the rise, and then, the defeat of the last great leader. This book is a piece of great information as well as a great source of entertainment.
