Ancient Egyptian legends

The author retells a series of ancient Egyptian religious legends and myths, presenting narratives about deities and supernatural episodes—covering miscellaneous divine tales, the Osiris cycle (including contests and transformations), myths associated with Horus, Thoth, Isis, and Ra, and accounts of the underworld and nocturnal regions. Stories are rendered in idiomatic English with attention to Egyptian phrasing and arranged to preserve traditional repetitions; appended notes cite sources and translations for further study. The volume combines accessible storytelling for general readers with scholarly references and an index of gods, aiming to make these preserved temple and papyrus legends coherent and readable.
