Another Fine Addition to my Mythology Library
If you are all interested in cultural myths outside of the typical greco/roman tradition we covered in secondary school, this is a great way to explore some of the fun and interesting parts of pacific island myths and legends ... and is a tad more in depth than watching Moana (which I have ... so that is not really a critique). There is even a little history of Hawaii thrown in ... So ... Clocking in at just over 23.5 hours, there is a lot to like here, with a narrative performance a solid match for such storytelling.
I was given this free advance review/listener copy (ARC) audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I understand Moana so much better now
I had no clue that Moana was based of real myths. I thought it was just made up. It was cool making this connection and learning about Hawaiian culture. There is a lot more in this book than just Maui stories. This was a really enlightening and timely book. The narration was well done.
