About this listen

Orpheus is the twelfth book in the Early Myths collection, and tells the myth of a musician who holds magical powers over nature and people. Orpheus falls in love but through a tragic accident loses his partner and must travel deep into the Underworld to try to persuade Hades to allow him to bring his wife home once again.

Follow the tale as Orpheus joins the Argonauts on their quest, captivates gods and goddesses with his lyre and song, and completes one of the greatest journeys in Greek myth.
