Description

Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.

correction: mores, not "morays"

Initially fun, light-hearted, whimsical, & enjoyable, the INSECENT insertion of modern day post-modern morays was too much to bear. The practice is distracting; it diminishes the value and mutes the understanding of the originally intended messages. If they had presented the stories with a strict(ish) historically cultural viewpoint, while keeping the necessarily anachronistic humor, it could be more than a C+ average; it would be something you would feel compelled to recommend to everyone you know, regardless of their personal, familial, religious, or political foundations.
