What a great retelling of the origins of Greek Mythology. Fantastic storytelling with a background on more than just big players, which I really appreciated.
Fry enraptured with his storytelling and captured the legends perfectly for new learners to myth, and old.
Looking forward to continuing on with this series.

Moderate: Blood, Death, Incest, Violence, and Infidelity
Minor: Adult/minor relationship, Animal death, Blood, Cannibalism, Child death, Confinement, Suicide, Suicidal thoughts, Sexual violence, Sexual assault, Self harm, Rape, Kidnapping, Grief, and Body shaming
Please bear in mind, these are Greek myths. If you're not anticipating incest, rape, and death, i don't know what you expected. However, Fry never describes in detail any rape or sexual assault.
