Far below expectations
I initially purchased this book in order to know more about Egyptian mythology and the core values of their belief systems. This book falls short. While it provides several stories, it doesn't provide context for the tales or place the tales within the larger Egyptian context or society. The narration is a bit dry and lacks nuance.

Good content poor performance
The content is good enough however I struggled with enjoying the voice performance. The voice actor is young, which I dont think fits a book on ancient Egyptian myth, and annoyingly raises his voice when impersonating female characters. He also has a twangy Australian accent which sometimes pierces through. Sorry I just didnt dig his voice.
