“The Complete Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt<\/a>” was one of my best book purchases of 2020! I have only just been able to read through most of it, and this is probably one of the most complete books that I have in regards to the Egyptian pantheon. I love how the book was organized, and how it also paid attention to the lesser known gods\ud80c\udeb9\ud80c\udeb9\ud80c\udeb9 and goddesses\ud80c\udeb9\ud80c\udfcf\ud80c\udfea in Egypt \ud80c\udd8e\ud80c\udd53\ud80c\udfcf\ud80c\ude96. The pictures were also spectacular and really added value to the text by only emphasizing the written words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have learned quite a few things from this book, and it is one I definitely recommend if you are interested in Egyptian mythology and religion. I wish I had gotten this book sooner – I got it on a trip to the MET in September 2020. I’m the type of person that likes to see my books before I purchase them, which is why I hadn’t gotten the book sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I actually brought this book with money my Nonno had given me, so it still felt like he was the one that brought it for me \u2764\ufe0f.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
