Maureen Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 ISBN: 185627957X I think this book covers all genres! Murder, incest,fantasy, romance, love, ...this book has it all. I loved reading these Myths. Strangely enough, while I usually have a problem with fantasy, I got along fine with half men half beasts, monsters, Gods giving birth from the top of their heads, and other fantasies, perhaps because I had heard some of the stories before? The book has fantastic illustrations of paintings, figure vases, sculptures, Greek artifacts and Greek archaeological sites. A lovely book, which I would recommend to anyone who cannot settle down with a normal book at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kell Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I love ancient mythology, especially Greek & Roman. The stories are absolutely cracking even when they're non-sensical, jam-packed with action, adventure & heroics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maureen Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 I love it too, but I have to shamefully admit that I have not read a book about it since I was a teenager! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
