Well, I thought the novels in this series were brilliant* (one more to come, I think). I did know a bit about the mythology before reading but hey, the words โfictionโ and โnovelโ gave me a big clue that the books were not going to be faithful to the mythological history!
*despite not being a big fantasy fan

An original setting (!) and energized retelling of the most potent myth in ancient Sumer, fantasized unfortunately almost out of recognition.

Iโve just finished two amazing novels by Emily H Wilson, part of The Sumerians trilogy.
They are based on ancient Sumerian myths and stories about the likes of Inanna, the Goddess, who lived on as Ishtar, Aphrodite and Venus, and Gilgamesh, he of the famous Epic of Gilgamesh. She has turned them into real people with a gentle nod to where the Gods & Goddesses may have come from.
