4.0
Great retelling of ancient Greek mythos. Fry's voice comes through perfectly, which is adds a unique humor to these familiar tales.

An interesting retelling. I'm not sure if I was reading this in his voice simply because I know he's the author, or because of how much his tone just seeps through.

Was listening to this on audiobook. Did not book me in as much as it did in the beginning.

I’ve rated it as 3 because what an immense book Fry has written. However, as I was listening to it I honestly couldn’t fall in love with it. I wanted to so much but unfortunately I felt like I was forcing myself to finish it.

This was a very coherent, at times funny and detailed telling of greek mythology. I enjoyed the audiobook very much, Stephen Fry is a great narrator.
