## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A Great Feast
  

*by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2001*

This book gives a great representation of folktales from all parts of Africa. These tales highlight the variety of the people and societies on the continent, helping to correct the notion of Africa being one big country. While stylistically consistent, the themese touched in the book speak of sophistication. From epics to simple "lesson" tales, Mr. Abrahams has done a great job laying out the stories. His introduction is also superb, though for some reason two stories he mentions in his introduction are not to be found in the book itself. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for the "real folk," and not simply beddy time stories (though some stories here could be used for that too!)

    Want myths? Wrong book
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2018*

I was looking into the Mythology of Africa, and this book seemed promises. However it truly wasn't. Told me fables that I have already looked at. Nothing about the gods and goddesses were in the story.

    African Folktales (Pantheon Fairy Tale & Folklore)
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2007*

I have yet to encounter one of the Pantheon folklore series that was not a good read.  This is no exception.  My regret is that they have not published more and that some of their folklore books seem out of print.  I enjoyed this book and I am happy to recommend it.  I knew little of African folklore before reading this book.  I plan to look into the subject more.
