Hedera
I am looking for a good, basic reference book on world mythology. Just to be able to look up some of the people, monsters and gods that tend to turn up as I make my way trough various Tarot decks.
Preferably, I would like something that covers world mythology, but just 'western' would be good, too.
I did a search on Amazon, but couldn't find anything I felt enthousiastic about.
Does anyone have any suggestions? It doesn't need to be illustrated, just something with concise information. I would really like something thick and heavy, lots of text and a good index, not one of those glossy coffee-table books.
Hope you can give me some titles!
