I’m truly blown away *by L***U on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2023* I have never written a review before but this book was so well done that I HAD TO come on here to sing this book’s praises.Wow!! That might be enough said for this, but…If you want more details…let’s start with the artwork - in short, it’s absolutely incredible. Five stars. 10/10. High fives all around. Slam dunk.As an artist myself…i can tell u not everyone can draw like this even amongst professionals. I think the style choice is wonderful and adds so much life to the story that it takes on almost an animated quality (this feels similarly easy to digest as a cartoon)…possibly more importantly though for someone who is not a scholar trying to fumble through this old story though, it even helps the reader understand what’s going on when the grammar of the translation becomes a little more challenging which I found incredibly helpful. Style choice is also really fun and adds so much entertainment and excitement while reading (lots of detail).Anyway, what brought me to this book was that I was looking for a fun way to read all the old ancient classics that I only pretended to read in high school but in reality only wrote papers about Sparknotes summaries for.In my defense, especially with older stories, a lot of the grammar and concepts make them very hard to read (for me) and there can be a bit of a pretentious academia flare to them that I now realize after discovering this book, wasn’t just in my head. This is an awesome rendition of this story and is much closer to the reality then those stuffy old books that were forced on us. People were just people back then who liked to joke around and even be raunchy, and they’ve done a wonderful job conveying that here. And they explain this is actually one of the most accurate translations out there because of it.I appreciate that even the forward of this book acknowledged this point and I really learned something about how “scholarly types tend to sterilize ancient literature by putting it on a pedestal and cluttering it up with elaborate scholarship” (pg. xvi). Essentially, in this book they’ve included all the good parts so you’ll actually enjoy it instead of being bored to deathI also lastly wanted to say that I absolutely loved the forward and learning that this was a father and son’s conjoined effort. The father was a brilliant professor of literature who was in charge of the story and his son is a brilliant artist who was in charge of the illustrations and the resulting quality of this book speaks for itself. (And I think it’s so sweet!)This book should be in every high school/college classroom around the world and it deserves every award out there. Buy it you will not regret it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Very well done! *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2024* Detailed, follows the story closely ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, hilarious illustrations *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2024* Entertaining translation and gorgeously illustrated. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/176571611-the-epic-of-gilgamesh](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/176571611-the-epic-of-gilgamesh) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
