Mythos: The Greek Myths Retold

Finally got around to this book - I've had it on my to-read list for a while now.

The first half of the book mostly focuses on the gods themselves, their origins, personality and any other key details. The second half mostly focuses on mortals, minor deities, nymphs, etc. which I found less enjoyable.

I particularly enjoyed the etymology, as Fry often points out words of our modern English that came from ancient Greek language and myth. I also enjoyed Fry's retelling of these myths.

However, the topic is one that didn't inspire nor interest me as much as I would've thought (enough to still get through the book though). So I'm giving this one a very subjective 3-stars.
