Histoire
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people.

Histoire
One of my dad’s favorite jokes about getting older was: “I went out for coffee when I was twenty-one and when I got back I was fifty-eight!” I get what he meant now. Time flies. My first book, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a "B" Movie Actor, was published back in 2001 and it chronicles the adventures of a “mid-grade, kind of hammy actor" (my words), cutting his teeth on exploitation movies far removed from mainstream Hollywood. This next book, an “Act II” if you will, could be considered my “maturing years” in show business, when I began to say “no” more often and gravitated toward self-generated material. Taking stock in the overall quality of my life, I fled Los Angeles and moved to a remote part of Oregon to renew, regroup and reload. If that sounds tame, the journey from Evil Dead to Spider-Man to Burn Notice was long, with plenty of adventures/mishaps along the way. I never pictured myself hovering above Baghdad in a Blackhawk helicopter, facing a pack of wild dogs in Bulgaria, or playing an aging Elvis Presley with cancer on his penis - how can you predict this stuff? The sheer lunacy of show business is part of the fun for me and I hope you'll come along for the ride.

Histoire
These 36 lectures tell the remarkable story of a tumultuous thousand-year period in the history of England. Dominated by war, conquest, and the struggle to balance the stability brought by royal power with the rights of the governed, it was a period that put into place the foundation of much of the world we know today. As you journey through this largely chronological narrative you'll see key themes emerge, including the assimilation of successive waves of invaders, the tense relationship between kings and the nobility, and the constant battles over money and taxation.

When Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm published their Children's and Household Tales in 1812, followed by a second volume in 1815, they had no idea that such stories as "Rapunzel", "Hansel and Gretel", and "Cinderella" would become the most celebrated in the world. Yet few people today are familiar with the majority of tales from the two early volumes, since in the next four decades the Grimms would publish six other editions, each extensively revised in content and style.

How can we make intelligent decisions about our increasingly technology-driven lives if we don’t understand the difference between the myths of pseudoscience and the testable hypotheses of science?

Description
In the newest installment of the best-selling series Mythos, legendary author and actor Stephen Fry moves from the exploits of the Olympian gods to the deeds of mortal heroes.
Perseus. Jason. Atalanta. Theseus. Heracles. Rediscover the thrills, grandeur, and unabashed fun of the Greek myths. Whether recounting a tender love affair or a heroic triumph, Fry deftly finds resonance with our own modern minds and hearts.
- Each adventure is infused with Fry's distinctive voice and writing style.
- Connoisseurs of the Greek myths will appreciate this fresh-yet-reverential interpretation, while newcomers will feel welcome.
- Retellings brim with humor and emotion.
"Mostly Chiron saw in the child, and the young man he became, boundless courage, athleticism, intelligence, and ambition. He saw too lots of words beginning with 'self', which gave him pause. Self-belief, self-possession, self-righteousness, self-confidence, self-love. Perhaps these characteristics are as necessary to a hero as courage."
In Heroes, Fry draws out the humor and pathos in both tender love affairs and heroic battles, and reveals each myth's relevance for our own time.

Near Perfection
Mr. Fry does such a resplendent job of writing and presenting these stories. The book's only shortcoming, in my uneducated opinion, is the "King sends hero on impossible task only to be shocked and dismayed at their triumphant return" plotline is a little repetitive, which makes this book only slightly less interesting than Fry's Mythos. Given this is not at all Mr. Fry's fault (and that the book still ends up being riveting) I still commend and thank him for this delightful presentation of Greek myth in all its moral messiness!

Fry is my favorite. This is yet another albeit one of his best examples of writing, acting, research, creativity and overall entertaining. He blends beautifully legend, myth, history, fact, fiction and pure imaginative genius so well even I a simpleton can enjoy the creation, learn from it and mostly sit in awe of all I don't know, didn't know and don't understand but now at least have a grasp of and all the while loving the journey as Fry's amazing voices play it all out in my head.

Like story time with a grandfather
I loved everything about Mythos, so this was a must when I saw it available. Fry does a masterful job of bringing the classic stories of Greek heroes to life in a way that is relatable, easy to follow, and feels modern. The way he builds in conversations over the breakfast table between Zeus and Hera to cover backstory necessary to a larger one is both highly entertaining and commendable as a way of making these gods and goddesses more accessible and relatable to the reader.
Whether you’ve studied mythology extensively or are just picking it up for the first time, Fry’s series is one that I recommend for its roots in scholarly research and adaptation for the casual reader.

One of those audiobooks that you don't want to stop. I listen while commuting to work. When listening to Heroes (and Mythos),I found myself leaving for work early and sitting in the parking lot in order to expand my listening time. Highly recommended to anyone with even a remote interest in ancient Greek mythology.

I grew up reading the stories of Greek myth, the childhood versions toned down for a younger audiences.
