An interesting and modern compendium of the most famous and important stories and characters of ancient Greek Mythology. Both informative and entertaining with the authors comments on some of the less savory details of the myths around the great Greek gods and heroes! Great, quick read.

This is a nice quick reference/primer for Greek Mythology. It is great as an introuduction. Each section is short and easy to follow. The artwork in this book was beautiful.

This is an Amazing book
It's like an handbook almost like a dictionary of Greek Gods, Heroes and other important characters.
.
It had details of all Gods and their misdeeds
Author calls things what it is
If it is Assault by God then it is .
If it is unnecessary creating problems for humans then it is
.
Authors has done good research and also mentions popular books and movies which took refrence from original myths
.
This is ideal read for those who are new to Greek gods and
Also for those who think they know it all by just reading Mythological "Fiction".
.
A must read for a fan of Greek Mythology
It's like talking to expert and with all the inside jokes .
.
Amazing book buys
Why didn't I read it before idk 😶
.
All the trigger warnings I gave come in any Greek narrative 😕

I really enjoyed this collection of Greek Mythology stories. They helped a lot with working out who was connected to who.
