Book Reviews of Gods, Heroes and Men of Ancient Greece: Mythology's Great Tales of Valor and Romance
Book Review: Very enjoyable
Summary: 5 Stars
This arrangement and translation of the classic Gręco-Roman myths is enjoyable, absorbing, and unique. The translator has the rare gift of preserving the poetryof the original but still making the translation adapt to English vernacular. Also, the book is written in the style of a verbal storyteller, and reflects on the riseof Christianity and the subsequent death of the Olympians.
