I ordered this book for my Mythology class. It's a great text, I enjoy reading the myths for my class. The book is divided into areas of the world, and then different myths from those areas. There are creation myths, myths about the gods, about heroes, utopias, and much more. Each myth has a short summary and background information presented before and then a few questions at the end of it. I was really excited about this class, and this text is the perfect companion for it. I get to read stories about gods and heroes instead of something boring! Most of the stories are just a couple pages, but there are also some longer ones you can read like The Aeneid, Beowulf, Gilgamesh, The Ramayana, The Iliad, and King Arthur (which I'm excited to read)!
