Review: Quick run-through for a good intro - Text clarifies approach succinctly to the topic and does a good whip-through in an understandable manner of presented layout and purpose to the reader. The sources used and how they are presented following each section was beneficial to my reading preferences and provided a thorough list of what else to inspect for additional topics. Author does well when presented comparative summaries of other works, as some information may differ or compete against each other regarding the same topic. Definitely a worthwhile source for anyone looking to understand theme behind different perspectives of Ancient Egyptian god hierarchy. “Guide” suits the title well, as well as the presentation of structure of myths.
Review: An easy-to-read introduction to Egyptian mythology - I enjoy this book very much. My knowledge to Egyptian mythology only limited to Mummy the movie and this book fills my childhood gap for the mystery of the book of the dead and the Imhotep story

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An easy-to-read introduction to Egyptian mythology
*by L***C on November 17, 2023*

I enjoy this book very much. My knowledge to Egyptian mythology only limited to Mummy the movie and this book fills my childhood gap for the mystery of the book of the dead and the Imhotep story

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read this first
*by O***9 on December 14, 2020*

First of all, this book is not a comprehensive reference for all of the known 1,500 or so gods and goddesses of Ancient Egypt. Nor is it a coffee-table book of gorgeous glossy images of art and architecture. It is a superb, well-thought-out overview of the mythology that is pitched in the ground between the written-for-children books (most books on the subject on Amazon) and books written for someone already in a graduate program in the subject. I wish I had read this first.
