The Epic of Gilgamesh (2006, Penguin (Non-Classics)) 4 stars

Review of 'The Epic of Gilgamesh' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A short but magnificent story about a Sumerian hero-king, named Gilgamesh and his brave companion, Enkidu. With many references to the ancient civilization of Uruk and to its deities, the reader gets an insight to this ancient world of epic myths and legends. Kudos to the people who found this epic, carved on a stone, so that the world shall never forget the majestic age of heroes and gods.
