Gilgamesh by Emily H. Wilson

adventurous informative mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

4.0

Gilgamesh by Emily H Wilson is Book 2 of The Sumerian Trilogy.  I read the first book, Inanna last year and have been looking forward to reading this one and it didn't disappoint.

The story is carefully woven from threads of ancient myths, archaeological records and a little bit of imagination to create a rich and vivid narrative. We hear from multiple POVs Marduk, Gilgamesh, Inanna, Ereshkigal, Ninshubar and Ninlil.  I found these characters captivating and well drawn. 

I would definitely recommend this book to lovers of myth retellings that are looking for something a little different. 

Thank you to Netgalley and Titan Books for providing me with a copy to read and review.
