The myths of the ancient Greeks are exciting stories that contain everything that captivates readers at any time: intrigue, love, passion, revenge, base and heroic deeds. Is it any wonder that these legends have dominated people's minds for thousands of years?! Sarah Iles-Johnston invites us to go along with her incredible journey from the creation of the world to the new life after the Trojan War, fascinatingly retelling classic stories - both the most famous and quite rare. Along this journey, Iles-Johnston tells about the relationship between gods and mortals, demonstrating what is the lot of man in a world ruled by powerful forces beyond human control. The book can be read in order from the first chapter to the last as a single story, or in a different order, depending on what interests you at any given moment - the themes and components of the plots overlap.
