Mythos

Publisher's Summary Step into another world - of magic, mayhem, monsters and maniacal gods - in Stephen Fry's momentous Sunday Times and Audible best seller, Mythos. Discover Stephen Fry's magnificent retelling of the greatest myths and legends ever told.... No one loves and quarrels, desires and deceives as boldly or brilliantly as Greek gods and goddesses. In Stephen Fry's vivid retelling, we gaze in wonder as wise Athena is born from the cracking open of the great head of Zeus and follow doomed Persephone into the dark and lonely realm of the Underworld. Shiver in fear when Pandora opens her jar of evil torments. Listen with joy as the legendary love affair between Eros and Psyche unfolds. Read by Stephen Fry himself, Mythos captures these extraordinary myths for our modern age - in all their dazzling and deeply human relevance. If you're enthralled by the magic of Greek mythology you'll love Fry's follow-up books Heroes and Troy, with tales of mortals and monsters, quests and adventures. ©2017 Stephen Fry (P)2017 Penguin Audio
