Publisher's summary

Explore the captivating myths of the Greek gods and heroes!

Although the Greek gods and goddesses were powerful immortal beings, they were in many ways still very like the humans who worshiped them. The gods and goddesses are stricken with jealousy; they fall in love; they get angry when they feel slighted; and bestow gifts when they are honored. Likewise, the heroes are larger than life: they’re stronger, faster, and more skilled than ordinary mortals, but they are still subject to pain, illness, and death.

This audiobook on Greek mythology will take you on a captivating journey, so you can experience the enjoyment of the entertaining stories while also learning about the Greek myths that lie at the roots of Western language, culture, and civilization.

Totally awesome

The intro briefly explains how all people and society's try to make sense of the world. We explain things in terms of science and the Greeks created these stories.

Thank you very much….

We got this for our 12 yrs. old grandchild but found it interesting enough for us. Unless you already know Greek mythology, this is a fine introduction for adults.

Full details that all

I think that this book has great myths that are unique and different than many other myths. A good supplement to all the Matt books reading. The myths behind the tales, if you will.

Thank you

There are also some excellent extra insights into the stories, such as the science behind the sun or moon or the geography of Greece or its people and culture.
