Like story time with a grandfather

I loved everything about Mythos, so this was a must when I saw it available. Fry does a masterful job of bringing the classic stories of Greek heroes to life in a way that is relatable, easy to follow, and feels modern. The way he builds in conversations over the breakfast table between Zeus and Hera to cover backstory necessary to a larger one is both highly entertaining and commendable as a way of making these gods and goddesses more accessible and relatable to the reader.

Whether you’ve studied mythology extensively or are just picking it up for the first time, Fry’s series is one that I recommend for its roots in scholarly research and adaptation for the casual reader.
