I agree Mahal, exotic mythology (not Greek, Norse, Roman, etc.) makes a story so much more fresh. Obsidian Butterfly of the Anita blake series is a lot better than most of the other books in the series because it uses Southwestern myths and Inca traditions in the climax.
Does anyone have a favorite book or collection of these types of myths? I was looking for Australian and Asian (esp. Polynesian) myths and legends at the library, and they only had the familar myths. Any suggestions?
