Light on details, format constrictive

Although it gives an overview of Greek Mythology, which is very dense with history and mythos, I found the structure a little constricting. Every section began with "birth," "dramatic events," etc. Good voice artist. There was a mysterious insert of music (?) for many of the chapters. It was jarring and unclear as t what it was supposed to be. If it was meant as a dramatic interlude to set up the next chapter, it had the opposite effect. It took me out of the narrative so much that I nearly left only a 3-star review for the performance. But that wouldn't be fair. I would consider re-engineering/re-recording this book and take those distracting bits out.

fun but strange quality

this was a fun listen, but there were some distracting recording and story (or reading) mistakes(?)

Great Book Series

I listened to this along with Celtic Mythology (next in series) during my morning commute. I love mythology, so I already knew a lot of the material covered, but there was a lot that I forgot about and some new stuff as well. I'd definitely recommend!

The narrator also did a great job.

FASCINATING INFO ABOUT GREEK MYTHOLOGY!

I only knew the "bare minimum" about Greek mythology before listening to this audiobook. I enjoyed it!! There's tons of info about all the Greed Gods & Goddesses and their stories. It's not "everything you wanted to know," but an intriguing and thoughtful glimpse into why these figures have so captivated us throughout history. Very enjoyable read, and loved the narration also :)

Greek Mythology

This book is chalked full of information on Greek Mythology. I heard some different takes on stories that I've heard before. I just really don't get tired of it. Some of the stories seem to vary, which many texts will tell you. Possibly because the stories were told from generation to generation over the thousands of years. But, the basics of it are the same. At some points, it sounded a little repetitive as though perhaps there were headers that were repeated in normal written form. But, otherwise, good information on a favorite subject.

Greek Mythology

This book is a nice introduction to Greek mythology. Each chapter gives listeners the story of the gods and a few stories about their adventures. The narrator speaks clearly and at a good pace so that you can understand and enjoy the information given. The book moves at a good pace and is not over inundated with information. This is a good starting point for someone who is beginning to get interested in Greek mythology, it gives basic information on the Gods and Goddesses and some major adventures associated with them.
