Are you looking for something general and theoretical like The hero with a 1000 faces by Joseph Cambell about mythology in general, or a small lexicon-like book on particular myths, gods and heroes?

I do not care if the material is esotheric or exotheric. It just got to be fulled whit mythos

From Ritual to Romance by Jessie Weston
The Hero with a Thousand Faces as mentioned earlier
Mircea Eliade has a lot of books related to mythology
James George Frazers The golden bough is quite popular
Arnold van Genneps Rites of Passage
Carl Jung has a book called "The Science of Mythology" or something along those lines
Victor Turner has a few books on different motifs in myth

How was Edith Hamilton's "Mythology" not the first response?

I am generally not a big fan of this conformist "let's everybody read the same exact 23 books and talk about them over and over"-thing that goes on here, but if you can go into detail and give me some good reasons for why I should read it, I will have a look.

The Golden Bough

Read Calasso's The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony for the Greek; and Ka for the Hindu. Both are mythographies.

Even though it's old, it's an impressive compendium.
