It was generally good, although not as great as I expected it to be. It tended to drone on a bit in places.
But good for those who want a quick overview of some parts of Greek mythology, especially about Odysseus.

Fantastic

I loved this book. It narrates Greek myths from the perspectives of goddesses and female monsters. I heard it on audible and it is read by Natalie herself and she has read it brilliantly. Highly recommended!
