This may just be your lucky day, since you are looking at the bundle of six different books that comprise stories of mythology and historical facts about several fascinating ancient societies. These are the titles:

African Mythology: This book is committed to checking out the gods and goddesses that the people on the African continent worshiped, and within the audiobook, you will find more info about:

  • Saas, Mbos, Somb, and other myths
  • Mami Wata, the sex and water goddess
  • Myths about creation from the Serer

Celtic Mythology: In this guide to Celtic mythology, several stories are not only outlined, but narrated elaborately. Others are quickly mentioned, and some historical background about the Celts, Irish, and Scottish is provided to set the stage.

Egyptian Mythology: This is an extensive guide to the world of Egyptian mythology. Both cultural background and historical events will be helping you on your journey of understanding the way the Egyptians of old lived and the things they believed. As you read about gods, goddesses, creatures, monsters, and dilemmas of everyday worship, you will get a greater comprehension of the most important aspects of this ancient civilization.

Greek Mythology: You’ll learn about all the best-known ones, like Zeus, Aphrodite, and Heracles, but also about the lesser-known ones, like Hephaestus, Cadmus, and Ion. All the most important stories and backgrounds are in here: the complicated relationships, the drama, the vengeance, the quests, and lots, lots more! Get ready for a treat!

Indian Mythology: Have you ever wondered about the gods and goddesses in the Hindu religion? Have you wondered about what goes on in a country where over a billion people live? Well, you’re at the right place. In this comprehensive guide to Indian mythology, you will read or listen to various aspects of what they used to worship and still worship in this sub-continent with its vast history. You will read about the Hindu epics and stories, the deities in their respective forms, and so much more.

Viking Mythology: This book is an extensive take a look at the Viking age, and the deeds and lives of these ancient, in some cases strange individuals. The Vikings of Scandinavia were brave, adventurous, and frequently barbaric, but there can be no dispute that they were also a people with huge goals. Viking culture is still a topic of interest today, and this uses an insight into simply how withstanding their legacy is.

Despite the poor English translation, unusual pronunciations and hesitation before native words, this book is not that bad. I would suggest going back and changing the words "kid/kids" with the words "child/children" and the words "guy/guys" with the words "man/men".

A lot of good information.

Yes, makes sense. Why not bundle all the books in one? Maybe because that gives you a too-good-to-be-true deal if you have a credit? Man, how is this author make her money back from that? I don't know how it all works, but I do know when I see a good deal, such as this one.

All the myths combined

I listened to this audiobook, and it was definitely motivational. Not only did this audiobook seem like it was top quality, but it also showed me essential things about daily life, and about this theme in particular, of course. So, it absolutely deserves a couple of hard-earned stars.

Liked it a lot

I guess I could go over each one of these books and mention all the strong points and the few weaknesses. I'm not a professional reviewer, so sorry, but that would take an eternity to figure all out to me, so I am just going to leave it at a few bullet points.

- First, the value. It's almost 37 hours. What else can I say? Get a credit and get it.
- Second, the interesting fact that all these stories have their own twists, their own cultural backgrounds, etc. But in a sense, some of the gods and goddesses share some commonalities. For example, most of these cultures have a fertility god or goddesses, a main god, a god of death, of creation, and all the main themes. And then there are the creatures, the fairies, the spirits, and the legendary heroes. Very much fun to listen to. It sparks the imagination. Strange to me that people believed these kinds of things, but then again, it might not be so different from believing anything invisible, including our own belief in an almighty God somewhere in the universe.
- Third, the narration was great. I mean, it wasn't perfect. But I liked it.
- Fourth, I cannot even begin to mention how much time it must have taken to put a bundle together like that. Doing so goes to show how much this author or publisher respects its customers.
- Fifth, I knew about Greek gods, something about Viking gods, etc. But Indian ones and Egyptian ones were pretty strange and new to me. This is another reason why I enjoyed it. It's like learning something I didn't already know.


Well, there, you have it. Like I said, it's not 100% perfect. But in my opinion, great value and great enjoyment (I keep using that word "great") for a gre.... uhm... good price. That's it.

Doesn't deserve anything less than 5 stars

How can I not? It's got all those myths and gods and... yeah, it's great. It is what it says it is, no less. No deception there. It's truly all the mythological stories and backgrounds of the cultures of these countries.

I recommend this

The robo reading of this book makes it very hard to enjoy. This book is not read by a human and this book on mythology seems very sterile. I regret this purchase because this topic needs a human voice.

Decent writing, horrible robo speak

I only managed to push through African and most of Celtic Mythology, and it wasn't worth finishing this audiobook.
Reader is a bit bland, and stubles of difficult words (fair enough, but audio editting should remove those sorts of things), but does get better over time.
Random use of theasurus, many words changed without consideration that they are homographs making the new sentence nonsensical.

Africa
Author needs a proof-reader as there is some clunky language and there things like describing multiple creatures as vampires followed by sayiong another creature is the clossest thing to a vampire, likely latter part written first. Otherwise content is quite good.
The humour is not for me, but that isn't inherently a bad thing.
Author is very respectful to the various cultures and mythologies at start, but the traditions of Africans in America are referied to as 'monkey business' and 'hellish exercises' both terms are used as pejoratives.
Someone clearly used a search-and-change function to substitute Slave for Servant as the Slave Coast is renamed Servant Coast (the bight of Africa has had many names over time, but never Servant Coast) this is made more clunky as they missed derived words such as enslavers. It feels subversive to censor the word slave, they could avoid the topic if they really insisted, but downplaying feels unsavoury.
Tone changes so much as the book goes on it is hard to believe it is written by one author. It starts very casual and jovial, becomes slightly deprecating and dismissive, to incredibly dry and formal. again, something a proof-reader could have assisted with.
Overall content is great, very detail dense, but I like that. delivery is wanting, needs a proof-reader, pronunciation coaching, and better audio editing.

Celtic
DO NOT LIKE the chapter title "truths and history of the powerful and superior people of Central and Northern Europe." hard to interprete as anything other than straight up biggoted.
Reader often pauses before reading difficult words, there should be more post production editing to smooth this over.
This feels like it was written by a highschool student who copy pasted paragraphes and changed words to avoid plagiarism, things like changing men to guys, friends to buddies, and most awkwardly, changing giant to huge even when talking about giants. Maybe this is how the author speaks but it definitly feels off.

So poorly done not worth listen to even if free
