Captivating

I am a big fan of Greek mythology and loved, loved hearing it told by Stephen Fry. Stephen Fry is a wonderful narrator and there was rarely a dull moment in this long epic. I highly recommend.

It unfortunately stops short of going on into the heroes such as Perseus, Theseus or Heracles. I hope for a sequel, however unlikely.

Greek Myths + Stephen Fry = Magic!

I love hearing Stephen Fry read! I love Greek mythology. So why is this not 5 stars all the way? This is a book I really need to read. I need the names and locations on the page in order to keep them straight in my head.

It's a bit like all the "begats" in the Bible. Everyone and everything is so intertwined. I couldn't keep it all straight. I'll listen to it again once I also own the e-book and I can highlight/take notes.

A Must Read!

Let me start by saying I started this book with absolutely no expectations or promises on what was going to be contained within this book. All I knew was that I personally love Greek mythology and just wanted to hear more about it. In the end, this book blew me away and I couldn’t be more in love with Greek mythology. This book was absolutely amazing from the word play, to storytelling and the timeline that was used to help us better understand. It is a must read for anyone who enjoys Greek mythology - you will not regret it!

Great listen

Beautiful work, keeps interest all 15 hours. Did not want to get out of my car at times.
