Gods and heroes are brought to life in this masterly retelling of the legends and tales of ancient Greece.

Here are the great stories of the Heroic Age, from the myths of the making of the universe to the death of Heracles. Set against the colorful background of Greece and the Aegean, the adventures of heroes such as Perseus the Gorgon-slayer, Dionysus, Theseus, and Jason and the Argonauts once again come to life.

In this skillful retelling, these tales are as vivid and exciting as when they were first told 3,000 years ago. The story of ancient Greece is continued in The Tale of Troy.

The narrator could be better. The story is told for an audience of children so it's quite filtered.

Its okay for kids.

Greek legends are fascinating. This has a great balance between diving deep into individual heroes and connecting the whole story together from Era of Titans to the Great battle.

Captivating

The book does a good job of telling an overview of the Greek Heroes. My complaint is that the audio has some sort of rythym similar to being paused, forwarded, and then restarted after each sentence completes in much of the reading. It's as if the audio is actually a patch work.

Irritating Audio

Started with great promise but continued insipidly. Could have been better but still a good audiobook to explore.

Informative

It was a good listen, covered all the classics in detail and learned a lot. Was written in an easy to listen , modern for the 1950s language.

Not bad
