Travel back to a time when divine beings mixed with mortals, when heroes battled sorcerers, and nature was a mysterious realm ruled by beautiful and dangerous deities.

These enduring myths have captured the imagination of generations of listeners and readers for millennia and continue to do so today.

Celtic Mythology
Delve into the beautiful and moving mythologies of ancient Britain with this fascinating look at Celtic and British folk tales and poetry. The stories include vivid accounts of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, the Gaelic gods, tales of the druids, and more.
Featuring fearsome gods and foolhardy heroes, these tales breathe new life into the ancient oral histories of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Drawing on the early writings of ancient Britain and the Celtic lands, some of the stories will be new to many, while others are familiar and well-loved.

Norse Mythology
The myths and legends of the Norse lands have been part of the European story canon for centuries. This collection contains stories retold from the Icelandic Eddas, the principal source of Norse mythology, along with the Sagas of the Vikings.
Following the deeds of powerful Norse gods, including Odin, Thor, and Loki, and filled with a host of fantastic creatures and magical objects, the tales conjure up an enthralling world of heroism and romance.

Native American Myths & Legends
These fascinating tales of the Native American peoples are filled with outlandish characters, heroic feats, and captivating legends. Extraordinary, diverse, and meaningful, these fables are a cultural landmark in North American literature.
From creation myths to the exciting adventures of the many trickster figures such as Coyote and Raven who appear throughout the tales, Native American Myths and Legends showcases the imagination, insight, and oral traditions of North America's first inhabitants. These legends span the width of the continent, with tales from the Ojibwa of the Great Lakes to the Inuit of Alaska. Featuring more than fifty legends, this collection of tales offers incredible insight into Native American culture and beliefs.

From the ancient indigenous narratives of Australia and New Zealand to the classical founding tales of some of the greatest empires of antiquity, these accounts are creative works of art as well as valuable sources of early history.
