Review of 'Heroes' on 'GoodReads'

5 stars

After translating some of these stories in secondary school, it's great to dive back into the myths without any of the pressure and with all of the joy. And the way that Stephen Fry writes the stories, there is lots to enjoy! He manages to tell the stories, guiding the reader through its context and the smaller details, without boring the reader for a moment. That is quite the achievement when I compare it to my youthful experience.
