Mythology by Edith Hamilton

4.0

---

I can't imagine any generation not getting into mythology. It's the most fascinating combination of fairy tales and action movies. You've got wars, romance, murdering, births from some guy's forehead, insane and disturbing amounts of bestiality, occasional incest.



I mean, what's not to love?

This book offers a fantastic introduction to Greek, Roman, and a touch of Norse mythology.



The author's introductions are super boring, so skip past the. But the stories are well told, and in depth. Definitely a fantastic primer for anyone wanting to learn more about these amazing characters.
