My first book Myth Education: A Guide to Gods, Goddesses, and Other Supernatural Beings will be heading to a bookstore near you (digitally if not geographically) September, 2017.
Myth Education is unlike any other mythology book you're likely to find. Not only does it cover dozens of figures from a variety of cultures, but also features over 100 pieces of original art created by an array of artists. It's worth getting for the art alone, but if you're so inclined you can also read the words which offer a modern analysis of some of the greatest and weirdest figures of world mythology.
I'll be posting some previews of the book in the lead up to it's release, but first, to whet the appetite, here is a complete list of the cultures and characters included in Myth Education.
