This masterpiece one of the best books

This masterpiece one of the best books I have ever read or listen. Normally, Greek mythology is boring or do not mind or is fearful, though this was wonderful. It's a combination of different stories about gods, heroes, and stories regarding the gods. I believe anyone who is considering this book should positively listen to it.
