What a great retelling of the origins of Greek Mythology. Fantastic storytelling with a background on more than just big players, which I really appreciated.
Fry enraptured with his storytelling and captured the legends perfectly for new learners to myth, and old.
Looking forward to continuing on with this series.

The first quarter was essentially a genealogy of the ancient God's, setting up the Titans and Olympians. It was necessary but definitely slower and read more like a presentation of facts rather than story.
I found that it got much better after the first quarter.
