A fantastic book which explains some core tenants of Hindu mythology in a very brief and succinct way for the casual reader. This comes across as half-textbook half-novel, which is the perfect way to disseminate information enjoyably from such a vast array of works. It’s worth noting that this book does not delve into practices or many practicalities of this religion for that is not its remit. I would this recommend for anyone looking to learn more about Hindu mythology.
