Here are the thrills, grandeur, and unabashed fun of the Greek myths, stylishly retold by Stephen Fry. The legendary writer, actor, and comedian breathes life into ancient tales, from Pandora's box to Prometheus's fire, and transforms the adventures of Zeus and the Olympians into emotionally resonant and deeply funny stories, without losing any of their original wonder. Learned notes from the author offer rich cultural context. This volume is a doorway into a captivating world.

The spirited (but friendly) debate over these titles could have gone on indefinitely. With years of listening, countless customer reviews, and a catalog of seemingly infinite great listens, 100 suddenly felt like a very small number. What we know for sure—each title that made it to this collection is elevated and made special in some way by audio, whether by a layered performance from a single narrator, a brilliantly cohesive full cast, original music, or immersive sound effects. Discover an audio experience for the ages.

Mythology for the kitchen table

I am a big fan of Greek mythology and loved, loved hearing it told by Stephen Fry. Stephen Fry is a wonderful narrator and there was rarely a dull moment in this long epic. I highly recommend.

It unfortunately stops short of going on into the heroes such as Perseus, Theseus or Heracles. I hope for a sequel, however unlikely.

I love hearing Stephen Fry read! I love Greek mythology. So why is this not 5 stars all the way? This is a book I really need to read. I need the names and locations on the page in order to keep them straight in my head.

It's a bit like all the "begats" in the Bible. Everyone and everything is so intertwined. I couldn't keep it all straight. I'll listen to it again once I also own the e-book and I can highlight/take notes.

Greek Myths + Stephen Fry = Magic!

Let me start by saying I started this book with absolutely no expectations or promises on what was going to be contained within this book. All I knew was that I personally love Greek mythology and just wanted to hear more about it. In the end, this book blew me away and I couldn’t be more in love with Greek mythology. This book was absolutely amazing from the word play, to storytelling and the timeline that was used to help us better understand. It is a must read for anyone who enjoys Greek mythology - you will not regret it!

Stephen Fry did an excellent job of research of the Greek Gods. I learned much more than just the average summary explained. I loved his performance. He is an excellent story teller. If you are interested in Greek mythology, than I highly recommend this book.

Absolutely loved Stephen Fry's wonderful narration of the Greek Myths! I was never that interested in Greek Myths but once I started listening to the magical performance by Stephen Fry I was absolutely blown away! I am now eagerly looking forward to listening to Heroes and Troy as soon as I finish Mythos.

The Best Audible Book I have heard!

The narration is great, but it is hard to keep track of the stories, especially if you are not familiar with Greek mythology.

Entertaining but confusing

To hear these Greek myths is to have your imagination and spirit awaken with the stories of why things are the way they are. Beautiful.
