About this audiobook
Book 1: Native American Mythology.
Stretching from the north to the south of the Western Hemisphere, the indigenous Americans have a long-forgotten history, and with that, myths, legends, and stories that have been passed on through generations. Many of them were in tune with nature and had their rituals, beliefs, and mythological creatures. To get a grasp of the original inhabitants of the United States, Canada, and Latin American nations, it is crucial to understand the roots of where it all came from and what was going on in people’s minds before the European settlers arrived.
Book 2: Inuit Mythology
Inuit mythology is intricate and complex, and the ideals behind some of their mythological beliefs were often intertwined with real-life events. This audiobook will examine how both myth and fact contributed to the culture and traditions of the Inuit people and how these influences and some stories continue to live on throughout the centuries.
Book 3: Inca Mythology
This book is dedicated to exploring the gods and goddesses that the Incas on the American continent worshiped, and within the pages, you will find subtopics like:
- Historical background of the Inca empire before the colonists arrived
- The myths about creation, death, procreation, and more
- Strange gods and goddesses they worshipped - sometimes in brutal, macabre ways
Book 4: Aztec Mythology
This book is dedicated to exploring the gods and goddesses that the Aztec people on the pre-Columbian American continent worshiped, and within the pages you will find subtopics like:
- The origins and influences on Aztec beliefs, or in other words, where they got it all from
- The most important themes in Aztec mythology
- Gods and goddesses and their background stories from Aztec mythology

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Not too shabby. Actually, I would almost say that it's terrific. The ideas from the writer made sense to me. I agreed with everything, and that's another reason that I am so ecstatic about this audiobook. The writer did not randomly pick little bits and pieces of bad suggestions, but rather, analyzed the claims enough.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I was seriously impressed by this audio book. I didn't stop listening up until completion. That's just how much I appreciated it. I was glad to hear the proper pronunciation of all the words by a skilled audiobook creator. This was actually worth my time. Lastly, a narrated book that gives you what you want. One more thing: The storyteller appeared to be so great that I would listen to it in the future. And maybe more than just one time. I cannot recall every single thing that's being stated in these audio books, so it would be worth reminding myself of what was being said.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Some of the best tricks about this specific concept are openly being disclosed by the writer. That's the reason that I just like it. I encourage you (or anyone who goes through this) to get this audio book. I liked it. Knowing so many new things about this idea was enlightening, to say the least. It was a breath of fresh air. I really appreciated it.
