The great myths of the world create meaning out of the fundamental events of human existence: birth, death, conflict, loss, reconciliation, the cycle of the seasons. They speak to us of life itself in voices still intelligible, yet compellingly strange and distant. World Mythology offers readers an authoritative and wide-ranging guide to these enduring mythological traditions, combining the pure narrative of the myths themselves with the background necessary for more complete understanding. Here, noted mythology expert Roy Willis, brings together a team of nineteen leading scholars navigate a clear path through the complexities of myth as they distill the essence of each regional tradition and focus on the most significant figures and the most enthralling stories. All aspects of the world's key mythologies are covered, from tales of warring deities and demons to stories of revenge and metamorphosis; from accounts of lustful gods and star-crossed human lovers to journeys in the underworld. All are told at length and are accompanied by illuminating and readable introductory text. Also included are summaries of important theories about the origins and meaning of myth, and an examination of themes that recur across a range of civilizations. Beautifully illustrated with more than 500 color photographs, works of art, charts, and maps, World Mythology offers readers the most accessible guide yet to the heritage of the world's imagination.Binding Type: Paperback

Very well-made, nice valet, solid wood with a silicone surface
I really do love this white BROWN wooden valet Tray. It has taken it place right next to my bed on my nightstand. Currently it contains a flashlight, my watch charger, earbuds, remote control, and a walkie-talkie. They all fit perfectly, it really keeps my stand, neat and clean looking. I like these trays because they look so much better than things just laying randomly across your nightstand. It saves things from rolling off to the back of the nightstand against the wall, where I have to flex like an acrobat to reach them. These are perfect for any works surface as well. These would be welcome in the shop. I'm sure they would be great for a teacher, a kitchen a professional at their desk. Just about anywhere you need to put small items and store them temporarily.
One of the best things about it is that the bottom or at least the inside surface where you place items is not wooden. It appears to be some type of a silicone so you don't hear that wood sound when you drop things into it. It's soft and things don't roll or slide. It holds them in place exactly where you put them. The bottom came with four felt pads that you can stick on the bottom before you put it on your nightstand or wherever you're putting it. Keeps it from scratching any wooden surfaces. It has a nice rounded edges are very clean dark wood look and a great silicone mat on the inside, this is perfect for your nightstand. I really do enjoy it. Comedy no assembly required. It's well-made and it's a sturdy piece of wood. I highly recommend it.

Holds hubs personal items nicely.
This is a decent sized wooden tray for the price. The manufacturer took care to package this nicely so it was not damaged in transit. All the material used on this tray seem to be pretty decent. The color is very versitile. The wood feels durable and not a soft wood that would easily scratch or dent. The faux leather lining is very nice and makes it quiet when hubs puts his keys down. This tray comes with 4 feet which one must apply by simply peeling the release paper and sticking to the bottom of the tray. This is nice so the tray does not scratch the night stand. Honestly, this tray is very versitile as this can definately be used on an end table in the office or in the bathroom to corral items on the counter top. This is a decent product at a very fair price.

Looks good and works great
Color: Wireless Charging
I put this on my desk at work and it is the perfect size. I keep it unplugged when not actively charging a phone, but the charger works well with an iPhone 15 though it seems to charge slower than if I use a charging cord, but that is not a big deal. I do have to take the case off the phone because of the type of case it is. It was easy to set up and I do take the cord out when not charging the phone. The mat itself is soft, does not have any strong odors even when first opening the package, and makes my desk look neat. Seems to be pretty thick and sturdy and would hold up to normal, every day use. Accidental spills were easy to clean, just wipe with a damp cloth and brush away any lint.

Great
Color: Wireless Charging, Color: Wireless Charging
I bought this wireless charging mouse pad, because my phone isn’t charging anymore using the USB, plus I need a new mouse pad, the wireless charging is super convenient, just drop my phone on the pad and it starts charging fast 15W.
The surface of the pad is really smooth, perfect for both casual use and gaming. My mouse glides like butter, and it's big enough to hold my keyboard and mouse perfectly. It also stays in place thanks to the non-slip backing.
One of my favorite things is the foldable phone holder. I didn’t think I’d use it much, but it actually comes in handy when I’m watching videos or just keeping an eye on notifications while working. Plus, the whole thing looks pretty sleek and would actually make a solid gift.
Overall, definitely worth it for anyone who wants to tidy up their desk setup and the wireless charging is super convenient. Easy to use, durable and easy to clean.
