Recent reviews
We frequently publish book reviews in Mythprint, and in the past we would post copies of these reviews on this page. But in later years, Mythprint has been being archived online, along with the book reviews published there.You can find recent book reviews HERE.
Our goal is to have all of Mythprint, including all its book reviews, available at this site. This project is still ongoing (as of 2024).
