It's very amusing that Poirot reads his first classic and immediately becomes so obsessed with it that he makes his whole life about it. However he will never retire so the point of these stories is a little vague.

The Nemean Lion - 4/5 - For a non murder case this was a bit entertaining, and I appreciated the ending
The Lernaean Hydra - 3/5 - It was fine, though as the daughter of someone who suffered and then died from a disease if not similar in nature than similar in effect to that of the victim, I found the lack of empathy (from her husband and from the people who were supposed to care for her) more than a bit revolting.
The Arcadian Deer - 3/5 - Nothing motivates Poirot as much as matchmaking. Not justice, not pride, nothing.
The Erymanthian Boar - 3/5 - Very simple to solve
The Augean Stables - 1/5 - This just in, Hercule Poirot helps corrupt politicians stay in power
The Stymphalean Birds - 4/5 - I guessed the twist but I really liked it
The Cretan Bull - 5/5 - Very compelling
The Horses of Diomedes - 2.5/5 - Only Poirot could make the dismounting of a drug cartel boring
The Girdle of Hippolyta - 2/5 - "Rich men have to be treated with respect" disrespectfully disagree
The Flock of Geryon - 3/5 - Amy Carnaby should have her own series
The Apples of Hesperides - 2/5 - This was a bit boring.
The Capture of Cerberus - 2.5/5 - Don't I love it when the world's eggiest moustachiest guy allows himself to comment on every woman's appearance that he crosses paths with.
