Egyptian Myths & Legends: Tales of Heroes, Gods & Monsters by J.K. Jackson (Flame Tree Collector's Editions)
The myths of Ancient Egypt are tied intimately to the presence and natural rhythms of the Nile. With their animalistic mythology, the Egyptians explained the effects of famine, harvest, floods and death by creating a pantheon of gods that still holds our fascination today. This collection brings the stories of the ancients to life: from the birth of creation by Ra, the sun god, to the murder of Osiris and the revenge of Horus, gaining glimpses of the underworld and the afterlife as the rulers of Egypt claimed lineage from the gods both worshipped and fashioned by their people.
A gorgeous collector's edition bound in a seductive, collectable format, this volume offers the perfect introduction to the gods, traditions and culture of Ancient Egypt. The Flame Tree Collector's Editions present the foundations of speculative fiction—authors, myths and tales without which the imaginative literature of the twentieth century would not exist—bringing the best, most influential and most fascinating works into a striking and c10.99ollectable library.
