I absolutely adore Greek Mythology, and this book was a fun read, however it continuously uses the wrong names for the Gods and Goddesses throughout the entire book. For example, using the Roman names instead of the Greek names, like Mercury instead of Hermes, Diana instead of Artemis, Pluto instead of Hades, etc. This kind of ruined it for me. And a lot of the stories were mixed up, or incorrectly told.
