Gods and Heroes of Ancient Greece by Gustav Schwab

3.0

"Gods and Heroes is part of the Pantheon series which I found through The Norse Myths by Kevin Crossley-Holland. I definitely intend to read more in the series since they cover myths and folktales from around the globe, but I will make sure to look up their page counts before buying because I did not realize how large Gods and Heroes was since the book of Norse myths was only around 300 pages. Filled with tales of heroism, ritual sacrifice, and tragedy, Gods and Heroes: Myths and Epics of Ancient Greece is a necessity for any fan of Greek mythology. Though the gods aren’t always center stage, this collection of classic myths is closer to readable prose rather than an academic study of ancient Greece and as such elevates it above simple reference material." - https://thepastduebookreview.com/2017/05/24/myths-of-ancient-greece-review/
