my 14 year old twins had to read this book for english over the summer and they really enjoyed the book alot. They said it was very entertaining.
a great intro to the myths April 13, 2008

I have truly enjoyed reading this book. I have some children's books on mythology that I read to my kids, and I found the topic so interesting I wanted a little something for myself. This is a great light reading of mythology for adults (or teens). I have always had a fascination with greek mythology - but when I took a college course in greek mythology - I felt that the professor pretty much killed any interest I had in the topic. Basically he threw us into some difficult text without much background info - and I ended up bored and "un-enlightened". Thankfully I rekindled this interest by reading to my kids. This particular book is just wonderful, especially if you are new to mythology - because the writing is very straight forward and accessible, yet fun and intriguing. Had I just started with this book in college, I probably would have read many more books, and ultimately waded into the more complex writing of the Greek plays. This is just the book to stoke the flames for anybody looking for a first adult book about the greek myths.

This is more of a "Mythology for Children and Beginners" resource. Most of the more obscure Greek myths (and in many cases, the more interesting ones) are left out entirely; of the myths which are included, only one version is presented of each, obscuring the fact that in many cases there were multiple versions of each myth, each version interesting and useful in its own right. I would recommend for the enthusiast Edith Hamilton's carefully researched "Mythology" - there is far more Greek material presented in that book than in this and in a more engaging format.
great little book June 7, 2007

If you like greek mytholoy, but you're not an expert, this is good staring point. it is very clear, and the histories are very fun to read
Especially great book for those young readers, interested in Greek Mythology May 13, 2007
This book is full of stories of Heroes, Gods and Monsters, wonderfully written for easy reading and comprehension. A great book for anyone, especially young readers looking for stories that will open their minds to a world of magic and mystery.
