Heroes is the 2nd book in the Mythology genre that I have read written by Stephen. I still adored and appreciated the way that the stories and myths were told, very much tongue in cheek! However, I found this one to be a denser read than Mythos: The Greek Myths Retold, with longer chapters and more mortals and gods names to learn.
I give this a 4 star review.
Moderate: Sexual content, Sexual violence, War, Death, Murder, and Suicide attempt
