Solid stuff, but the beginning is a bit detached and unnecessary. Kinda long, too. Otherwise, good all-around read if you're somewhat interested in Greek stuff or hero stories.

Truly painful to listen to, even as an audiobook/oral history replication.

I understand it's a classic. It's also kind of boring.
