Review: intergalactic astronauts ahoy, captain, lol! - this book was a real eyeopener in places, especially the story about the goddess inanna/anannan, also known as the goddess ishtar, "possibly" being a hermaphrodite. this was featured in the asian mythology section. the dogon people in western african mythology was quite interesting too: they could have been aliens because they are described in this book as green with red eyes. i don't know if any of these people have survived, but it may explain the area fifty one issues about extra terrestrials. if "they" are living amongst us, maybe there has been an attempt to keep it quiet by the powers that be because they don't want there to be a panic. or maybe earth was visited by these astronauts tens of thousands of years ago? maybe human beings are relative newcomers to this planet and have interbred with other superior lifeforms? maybe maybe maybe. maybe i'm just reading too much into it? maybe i should never have watched the film invasion of the bodysnatchers? maybe you have been drinking too much oasis citrus punch drink, wendy howarth lol! this book was thought provoking for me, and i'm glad i finally got around to reading it. i'm going to peruse the copy of dk the lgbtq+ history book i got some time ago next. i doubt it will blow my mind in the way the dk mythology book has, but you never know, do you? "calling occupants of interplanetary craft....we are your friends" as the carpenters sang in the seventies. read this book and you too may be astounded. maybe....babe. Review: Great Book, perfect for Ancient Astronaut Theorists. - It is comprehensive and well researched, a lovely gold book of knowledge that is worth its weiht in gold. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0241301912 | | Best Sellers Rank | 52,972 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 8 in Indigenous Practices 32 in Religious Studies Encyclopaedias 43 in Mythology Encyclopaedias | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,405) | | Dimensions | 20.2 x 2.6 x 24 cm | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 9780241301913 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0241301913 | | Item weight | 1.16 kg | | Language | English | | Part of series | DK Big Ideas | | Print length | 352 pages | | Publication date | 3 May 2018 | | Publisher | DK | | Reading age | 14 years and up | ## Images ![The Mythology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41EJaRa9rCL.jpg) ![The Mythology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41KFMN3tBsL.jpg) ![The Mythology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/519buOK2P7L.jpg) ![The Mythology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51KE-1GC5-L.jpg) ![The Mythology Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51SSnL04c9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ intergalactic astronauts ahoy, captain, lol! *by W***H on 14 March 2025* this book was a real eyeopener in places, especially the story about the goddess inanna/anannan, also known as the goddess ishtar, "possibly" being a hermaphrodite. this was featured in the asian mythology section. the dogon people in western african mythology was quite interesting too: they could have been aliens because they are described in this book as green with red eyes. i don't know if any of these people have survived, but it may explain the area fifty one issues about extra terrestrials. if "they" are living amongst us, maybe there has been an attempt to keep it quiet by the powers that be because they don't want there to be a panic. or maybe earth was visited by these astronauts tens of thousands of years ago? maybe human beings are relative newcomers to this planet and have interbred with other superior lifeforms? maybe maybe maybe. maybe i'm just reading too much into it? maybe i should never have watched the film invasion of the bodysnatchers? maybe you have been drinking too much oasis citrus punch drink, wendy howarth lol! this book was thought provoking for me, and i'm glad i finally got around to reading it. i'm going to peruse the copy of dk the lgbtq+ history book i got some time ago next. i doubt it will blow my mind in the way the dk mythology book has, but you never know, do you?

The graphics layout, however, is, in my opinion, awful. Great big blocks of typeface as headings give a slightly patronising feel to the whole book which detracts from the scholarly content. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/62832099-the-mythology-book-big-ideas-simply-explained](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/62832099-the-mythology-book-big-ideas-simply-explained) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
