Review: Conozco este libro de la colección (son una trilogía) y es una preciosidad. Los dibujos son impresionantes y el texto, basado en la historia de Gilgamesh es muy bueno (en inglés). Se trata de un libro (cuaderno ilustrado) difícil de conseguir, muy caro o de segunda mano. Pedí los otros dos que llegaron sin problemas, pero este último viene de otra tienda, no de desertcart, a la que he comprado varias veces otros libros sin problemas. Esta vez no hubo suerte, se envió por Royal mail...nunca ha llegado. Voy a pedirlo a desertcart.com para ver si lo consigo. Me han hecho un reembolso sin problemas. El servicio de desertcart, como siempre impecable.
Review: It's a Wonderful set of books that should grace all children's books shelves

*by R***L on 26 September 2013*

It was enjoyable to read Zeman's interpretation of Mesopotamian myths. She did a great job retelling the story in an interesting yet child-appropriate way. We got all three books in the series and read them all on evening. The illustrations are beautiful. A hardcover would make a beautiful gift if they were not so expensive and hard to find.
