I discovered this children book here on Litsy, as I never heard of it, so I went out and bought a used book and enjoyed it immensely.
Mythology is just so fascinating!

An illustrated edition of Stephen Fry‘s Mythos of the Greek myths.
This was a lot of fun. Fry‘s comedic chops definitely shine in these irreverent takes on the Greek myths we all already know. But he‘s also produced some versions that I had never heard of. And the illustrations were gorgeously colored and very striking. Would recommend this to any mythology collection! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
99p on Kindle for anyone that likes a Greek myth type story

I can't imagine anybody outdoing Jennifer Saint's ability to bring savage, mystical greek mythology to life. I appreciated feeling immersed in the perspectives of each character, and I was struck by how often we still reference these fables in modern time. I wish history would have been taught in school with the eloquence and captivation that these stories are told! 🎧⚡️
I am getting nervous I‘m almost caught up on this series and will miss the world and characters. This one wasn‘t my favorite which bums me out bc I was super excited for the Charon Eurydice romance…maybe I got too excited!

Fascinating, beautifully written and filled in this myth in the most lyrical and human way. Wonderful on #audio Now I want to read about her daughter Electra! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Her life changes again when a young man sails to the island. Carefully keeping herself from view, Medusa gives Perseus a fake name, & they tentatively start a friendship which deepens as they start to tell each other their secrets. (continued)
