Loved It!

This audiobook was right up my street as I love many periods of history, but ancient Greece is pretty high on my list. I thought I knew my fair knowledge of Greek Mythology until Joy humbled me with these short but educational stories. I love how the stories are ten minutes long, as this is the sweet spot for entertainment and learning combined, and each leads onto the next within the mythological timeline. My favorite stories were the birth of the Titans, the Gods of Olympus, and the story of Herakles. I say this because these are the ones I didn’t know as much about, and I loved learning the genuine tales in greater depth. I would also like to mention that Graham’s narration is perfect for the subject, and listening to him is a pleasure, as his tone keeps you engaged and brings the stories to life. Great Audiobook!

Quick, entertaining mythological stories!

As a lover of Greek mythology, this was a very entertaining listen. It was nostalgic to listen to trials and tribulations of Herakles which took me back to elementary and middle school days. Besides being a book that was fun to listen to, I actually learned a lot about many Greek Gods, demigods, and other significant characters that I wasn't very familiar with. The tales were short and sweet and I especially liked learning about the stories of the various Titans. It is so interesting to learn about how mythology explains why and how the world is the way it is. Awesome listen and I highly recommend!

Highly Entertaining!

As a big fan of Greek Mythology I though I knew most of the Mythology. But what I liked about "10-Minute Stories from Greek Mythology: Gods, Heroes, and Monsters" was how many stories that were new to me, were introduced! The narration was fantastic, and with each story being concluded in that 9-11 minute range, you do not have to wait long for a conclusion.

Whether it is "The return of LoLcos", "Medea and the Trials" or "The Calydonian Boar Hunt" this audio book contains many Greek Mythology stories that will be new and entertaining to the listeners! I highly recommend this audio book.
