Death and the Underworld by Anthony Horowitz

emkoshka's review

4.0

This has been my favourite volume of the Legends series, mostly because it contains my most beloved Greek myth, the tragic love story of Orpheus and Eurydice. I can read this story over and over and never get tired of it; my heart always anticipates a happy ending to the story and is always shattered by the reality. But I go back to it again and again, for the pure romance, I think. What woman wouldn't swoon at a man who defies death and the underworld to save her? But actually, all the stories in this volume were top-notch; a really great read.
