The Chinese Myths: A Guide to the Gods and Legends

My son who is high functioning and 28 has taken college courses in Mythology and cannot get enough information. He LOVED this book and and has soaked up all of the stories and facts. Well worth it.

I am fascinated by Asian mythology, particularly Chinese, Japanese, Korean and that from the Philippines. This pretty book I originally borrowed from our local library but immediately told myself I needed myne own copy. It is succinct, foundational and easy to follow. Though populated with plenty illustrations all have weird ‘bluish’ tint. Weirdness. Anyway, it is a fine, well-made production, regardless the picture colorings. A keeper.

Hermoso libro. Lo recomiendo.

It was a good book to read .

I bought this as a birthday present for someone who is fascinated about Chinese folk stories. They loved it!

O livro é bom pelo valor, traz várias histórias, mas em geral muito resumidas. Há outras compilações de lendas e mitos chineses melhores, mas bem mais caras. Útil para quem quer uma introdução ou apenas ter uma noção sobre esses mitos e lendas.

Excelente.!!

Well written, very good art, and high quality.

A good if somewhat limited study of Chinese mythology
