From what I've read about it, it's basically a book that would not be shelved with fictional novels but would instead be shelved in the mythology section. Kind of like D'Aulaires' Book of Norse Myths, but for adults instead of children. (Although that book is fantastic; it's what got me extremely interested in mythology as a child and led to my eventual minor, the study of ancient religions focusing on Norse and Greek myths.) I'm very much looking forward to this book! :-) (less)

Lo D'Aulaires' books are awesome! I absolutely adored the Greek Mythology book as a kid, and it's led to an adult interest for me, too. ...more
