'Twas Greek to Me
I hope the Bard of Avon and you, gentle reader, will pardon my whimsical headline!This was a most enjoyable read and an apt and thorough introduction to basic Greek Mythology, complete with choice tidbits of the history of the times and real characters at the time they were set down. The author has a style which makes it an easy, comfortable read while retaining credibility of content. I heartily recommend it as either introduction or refresher. Well done!

The book it's self.
As someone who's knowledge of Greek mythology could be viewed in a Disney film. I found this book very helpful in having a better understanding of what we know about Greek mythology. I will definitely listen again as I found may points very interesting.

Good basic introduction.
This little booklet is a serviceable introduction to Greek mythology. Limited in scope and size, it leaves the reader wanting to dive into the topic to much greater depths. To this end, the lack of a bibliography or suggested reading appendix is unfortunate. Sources are cited throughout, but a cohesive list is desired.That said, this covers all the basics and offers a tantalising glimpse into the complex world of Greek mythology.

A good primer in Greek mythology
This book was a good introduction to Greek mythology, and brought back many pleasant memories of my childhood when I learned that mythology had an answer for almost everything. A thoroughly enjoyable book.

More than sufficient for overview on Greek Mythology
I am in the middle of wring a message to poets about psychoanalysis. I have picked up books on Greek mythology many times but failed to continue because all of them are too voluminous and tedious. I have decided to make my own short good summary.Then I found this succinct, clear and well organized book on the subject with everything I need to quote on my writing. I don't know why always Greek mythology is only for the famous writers and has to be complicated. This book is sufficient and.even if one need to go in details this is wonderful guide or index to begin with. I would recommend to anyone to learn about Greek mythology before you pick up any thick volume.

Good starter
Very factual yet brief. Someone who isn't looking for an in-depth look at Greek mythology should start here. Good starting point.
