Gods, Heroes, and Monsters: Discover the Wonders of the Ancient Greek Myths

80 pp. | Barron's | July, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7641-6854-3 $18.99
(4) 4-6 In this basic introduction to Greek mythology, short sections provide information on various gods, demi-gods, creatures, and human heroes. The layout is eye-catching though somewhat busy. The included photographs, sketches, and paintings are excellent, but the inelegant computer illustrations don't mesh well with the rest of the presentation. The book also lacks any back matter to highlight sources or further reading.
