10 Hindu Mythology Stories to Get Lost In

You know the names. Shiva, Krishna, Rama, Ganesha, Draupadi. Maybe you grew up hearing them in passing, or you came to Indian myth after Greek and Norse and wondered where to start. But nobody ever sat you down and simply told you the stories, beginning to end, the way a story should be told.

That is what this collection does. Ten of the greatest tales of Hindu mythology, each one complete in a single sitting, told in plain and beautiful English with real dialogue, real suspense and characters who argue, grieve and love. You get the gods churning the ocean for the nectar of immortality, Sati walking into the fire, Krishna stealing butter, Rama's exile and the war for Sita, and the dice game that brought a dynasty down.

By the end you will know these stories well enough to tell them yourself. Press play and let the oldest living story tradition in the world do what it has always done.
