I must admit I had trouble with this. This is likely because I need my books to have long arching hooks to draw me back in.

Unfortunately this is nigh on impossible to achieve that with what is essentially a collection of short myths. (Nor, I believe, should it have been attempted.) It's arranged in a chronological manner so you do get the essence of a start and a finish (and this is likely one reason I stayed with it).

Still, I did finish it, and it's obvious many others have enjoyed it, and will do so in the future. It's put together nicely and told in an interesting way.
