This was good. It linked the histories together in a clear way and explained the Greek mythology, particularly, in a way I haven't seen before. (

This read was something that I believe people should read if they have an interest in it. It just put an interesting twist on the myths that I know and love. I also really like the author and I won't hesitate to pick up more of his works. (

Dedication

First words
