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

The Aztecs believed offerings of human blood and human lives were necessary to the continued running of the universe. Indeed, in Aztec myths, the gods themselves make sacrifices of their own blood and even of their entire bodies in order to create a universe humans can live in and, in one story, to create humans themselves; humans therefore must make blood sacrifices in turn to feed the gods and to keep the universe in existence.

To the ancient Aztecs, these practices seemed fitting, necessary, and honorable, helping to connect the world of humans to the divine world of the gods, a universe that in Aztec myth took shape in cycles of creation, destruction, and rebirth.

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

  • The legend of the suns
  • The feeds of Mixcoatl
  • The origin of maize and the creation of pulque
  • The fall of Xochiquetzal
  • The fate of souls
  • Huitzilopochtli and the founding of Tenochtitlan
  • Huemac plays the ball game
  • And many more!

This is a wonderful book I purchased for my grandson who is 8. it gave understandable stories of the Aztec Gods and the mythical stories that brought them to life. National Geographic did an awesome job on this book.

learned so much

Nahuatl words are hard to pronounce. The narrator gets most of them right, but the ones he mispronounces are pretty prominant and distracting. For example Tenochtitlan should be pronounced "Teh-nohch'-tit-lahn;" Quetzalcoatl is not a type of winter "coat" ... the "a" should be pronounced like this: "Ketsahl-koh-ah'-tl. The "x" in "Mexica" is pronounced like "sh," so it should be pronounced "Meh'-shi-kah," not like the "x" in our pronunciation of the modern country "Mexico." The substance is quite good, though, as with all captivating books!

I looked for a basic Aztec mythology book for what seems like forever now because I was holding out for a book with really good illustrations and I found that in this book. The stories are short and to the point without feeling rushed and the stories are in order.

Really well done!

This is a good audiobook for my children to start them in Aztec Mythology. After listening to it several times though I've had to buy other books for them to go further in depth.

Good for children

It made listening about the Aztec Myths bearable because they were nice short and to the point stories without a lot of filler. My mind tends to wander when there is too much filler information but this book was perfect.

I was pleasantly surprised

I liked learning more about the myths of my ancestors. This book has some great stories that I will be able to pass down to my kids to keep our heritage alive. I think it’s important to know about our roots and embrace the rich cultural history we have. I’d definitely recommend it for that reason.

The narrator does an absolutely terrible job at pronouncing even some of the most basic Nahuatl words and names. This is painfully obviously read by someone who has no familiarity with our culture and it devastated the delivery of these great stories. This should have been read by someone who has a deep connection to the stories and at least a basic understanding of the language.

In all, I’d recommend it for a listen. Just assume that each and every Nahuatl word is pronounced incorrectly. Really, it would be better if you read it on your own and learned how to pronounce the words properly.

Great stories, horrible delivery

Not my all-time favorite, but found it an engaging one. In fact, I’ve listened to this in one sitting as Aztec’s culture amazed me right from the beginning.

I found this to be an engaging one.
