Title: Like reading a student's summary
Review: This is not what I remembered as the mythology: the rich and fascinating stories I had read when I was a child.This book is a very dry, summary of the mythology. Boring. Fails to involve the reader or to stir any emotions. "Hercules did this and then he did that...Yawn...Yawn again..."It looks like a (poor) effort on behalf of a (bored) student to summarize it for the coming high-school exam.Thus: If you are preparing for such an exam - this may be the book for you. If on the other hand, you expect a pleasurable reading experience - find a better alternative.
