The Groovy Greeks by Terry Deary

3.0

I’m getting closer and closer to the end of my Horrible Histories list and with every book that I finish I feel more and more nostalgic for this series. I also think I’m going to be a bit sad when the journey is over which is a bit odd but what can I say.

I think one of the reasons that a lot of people are intrigued by the Ancient Greeks is that they are seen as the cradle of modern civilisation, and we still carry out a lot of modern functions that they created. That isn’t to say that other civilisations weren’t as important but the Greeks do enjoy a certain importance in history.

I don’t know, it just seems like quite a widespread enjoyment, even down to modern retellings of Greek myths. It’s quite incredible really.
