About this listen

Having sold millions of copies in print, Bernard Evslin’s classic retelling of the Greek myths captures the excitement and enchantment of these stories that have influenced many of today’s popular films and novels. Easy to understand and fun to read for both adults and children, it is no wonder this book has been taught in schools all over the world. Evslin introduces listeners to the wondrous and terrifying world of superhuman beings, such as Medusa and the Minotaur, and the glory of gods like Zeus, Athena, and Poseidon - brought magically to life through heroes such as Perseus, Daedalus, Prometheus, and others.

Wonderful, Wonderful!

What more can be said of the wild tales and lessons of Greek mythology? Always exciting and these stories never grow old. Look to the sky to see Cassiopius and the sea for Aphrodite. A great book for family vacations or just summer amusement.

Greek Myth's brought to LIFE!!

This book grabbed me and would not let me go....not till I finished it! I so enjoyed this book that I know I will be 'reading' it again and again! I loved learning about some of these stories in school , so when I came across this book I just had to give it a listen, I used the 'sample listen' and went for about 40 sec. and then I hit the buy button! I am very pleased with my purchase! You will be too if you also enjoy the stories of Zeus and Hera and Posiden, of Persus and the Gorgon Medusa, of Icarus and his flight to the Sun! And many other stories of those ancient God's and Hero's! Very very well read and easy to listen to with Todd Haberkorn on the microphone! You will not be disappointed if you enjoy the Myth's of long ago!

beautiful

I only wish there was more. I truly enjoyed all the stories and the narrator was wonderful. I hope to find more books like it, with wonderful and whimsical tales, with a narrator that breathes life into the characters, just like this wonderful book breathed life into the Greek myths.
