Easy Listen. Interesting. Story telling. Loved it.

I loved that it was story telling without getting too wordy or detailed. Good read.

Boring Narator Amazing Stories and info

I really loved the information between stories and have been a Greek myth fan forever. However, the narator was practically dead pan. there was no passion. Almost no dynamics to the way she told the stories. It really effected my enjoyment. Greek Mythology deserves a passionate dynamic reading. Someone to get you excited and invested in the characters. Not a voice like an over worked public school teacher whose lost their will and passion to teach, because that's what this felt like.

Greek Mythology

This was well written had wry humor and pathos.If you enjoy Mytholgy of and kind this is one I sure you will enjoy

Great Listen

I wish I could’ve heard so many more stories! The narration was great, such an epic tale.

Vibrantly Poetic & True to the Originals

If you love Greek Mythology or are intrigued by it, this is the place for you! The author and the narrator team up for a whirlwind experience of vibrant poetic descriptions as well as a calm retelling true to the original stories. Not a single moment is boring nor is a scene left undescribed! Any age range can enjoy these tales as well as comprehend their complexity. This novel was orderly and easy to follow along; definitely deserving of a 10/10! :)

Brilliantly poetic

I love the way this author is so poetic. She tells familiar stories in a way that is interesting, not too graphic, even though some of the stories can’t be when told by other people, and just beautifully written. I will be reading this again.

so inconsistent

I get the want to modernize stories of the past but to do so inaccurately not only takes away from the stories but insults the culture and heritage the stories come from. the inaccurate stories makes me question the information give in between them.

Amazing!!!

This book is amazing!!! Whether you are new to Greek mythology or you know the stories by heart you will find this audiobook interesting and engaging! Christina Moore makes this book come to life, and her relaxing voice has made this a nighttime favorite for me! I cannot say enough great things about this book, and I HIGHLY recommend!

A book with many stories

One of the best things about this book is there are many different stories that all make one.

Very good

This book is very good and definitely worth a read. But it is more like a guide to the gods and leaves out some important story’s and gives about 1 story about each god.

The narrator is very good to and is interesting to listen to.
