About this audiobook

This book is dedicated to exploring the gods and goddesses that the Incas on the American continent worshiped, and within the pages, you will find subtopics like:

  • Historical background of the Inca empire before the colonists arrived
  • The myths about creation, death, procreation, and more
  • Strange gods and goddesses they worshipped - sometimes in brutal, macabre ways
  • The polytheist Inca religion
  • Child sacrifices and inhumane rituals as part of idol worship
  • Typical elements that made up the Inca civilization

Inca mythology is intricate, complex, and the ideals behind their mythological beliefs were often intertwined with real-life events. This book will examine how both myth and fact contributed to the culture and traditions of the Inca and how these influences and some stories continue to live on throughout the centuries.

Nice about mithology, but... The parts that are supposed to bring some historical reference are full of propaganda in favor of Inca "utopian" empire, not imparcial at all and does not reflect facts, important omissions are also a way to lie. In the other hand, most os the Quechua language words suffer from serious mispronunciations.

The difference between this and other audiobooks, is really that this book is much better. You gotta love something like this. This audiobook took them a lot of precious time to publish and narrate. Such an interesting idea. I think I will let my brother or sisters spouse listen to it. They need to know that there are audio books like these available.
