I’ve both read this and listened to the audiobook. I personally feel both are worth doing. Stephen Fry lends a theatrical narration in the audiobook, and his footnotes in the physical book are both informative and hilarious little tidbits. The myths are presented in a logical (and as chronological as possible) sequence. Definitely recommend for anyone with even a passing interest in Greek myths.
