Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Fun Stories
I got this audiobook so that I can share my interest in Mythology with my grandchildren.
These stories are perfect for keeping kids engaged because they are exciting and short. All of grandkids have enjoyed them so far - boys and girls alike.
I am not disappointed! The narration is good, easy to understand and kept the kid's attention. My grands are ages 3-8. They usually ask for "one more" at the end.

HORUS HOR D’OEUVRES & BITE-SIZED BEOWULF!
Author Joy Chester presents her wonderful concept of presenting full-spectrum mythology from ancient cultures in easy-to-understand and thoroughly engaging 10-minute segments.
I love that they're short enough to be shared with my grandkids at bedtime. Each story is beautifully written and completely engaging, and the kids always ask for more at the end!
The narration by Dave Milliken is perfect. You will want to plug these into car trips, plane trips, and, of course, bedtime.
Highly recommended.

Engaging 10-min stories great for all ages
The audiobook's description piqued my curiosity, particularly because of its convenient 10-minute story duration. I decided to give it a try, and it has proven to be an excellent choice for our car rides. My children, aged 10 and 11, have shown genuine interest and engagement while listening. I have found them quite interesting as well! The narration quality is top-notch, and I definitely this audiobook. It's worth noting that the author has other books available, and we're eager to explore them as well!

Mythology brought to life
I grew up loving history and mythology so this was perfect for me. The stories were entertaining and easy to visualize. The longest stories were the Egyptian mythology stories. It was familiar , but I learned about a lot of new chacters I never new about. The Mesopotamia stories of Gilgamesh were soulful and sad. My favorite were the Norse stories. I do have to say the marvel movies have sort of ruined it for me. I had a hard time visualizing it the way it should be. Overall a great set of stories!

Timeless Tales!
It offers a captivating exploration into the realms of Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Norse mythology. Chapter 18, focusing on Beowulf and the slaying of Grendel, stood out as a remarkable narrative that stirred my imagination. As someone who has always been fascinated by ancient tales, this chapter unfolded like a cherished story passed down through generations. Beowulf's courage and the vivid depiction of the battle with Grendel transported me to a world where heroes faced daunting challenges.
Recently, I shared this particular myth with my young niece during a bedtime story session. The engaging storytelling style of Chester, coupled with Millican's expressive narration, held her attention throughout. It was heartwarming to see her fascination with the heroic feats of Beowulf, and the story sparked meaningful conversations about bravery and standing up against adversity. The simplicity with which the tale was presented made it accessible and enjoyable for both of us.

Great for bedtimes
I was looking for something different to for my kids to listen to at bedtime, and I came across this book. It's a real eye-opener for my kids who live in London and haven't yet travelled to exotic places such as Egypt and Scandinanvia. I get lots of questions after each story, so I know they're listening. I certainly am. Thoroughly recommend.
