Discover Stephen Fry’s magnificent retelling of the greatest myths and legends ever told…

No one loves and quarrels, desires and deceives as boldly or brilliantly as Greek gods and goddesses.

In Stephen Fry’s vivid retelling, we gaze in wonder as wise Athena is born from the cracking open of the great head of Zeus and follow doomed Persephone into the dark and lonely realm of the Underworld.

Shiver in fear when Pandora opens her jar of evil torments.

Listen with joy as the legendary love affair between Eros and Psyche unfolds.

Read by Stephen Fry himself, Mythos captures these extraordinary myths for our modern age - in all their dazzling and deeply human relevance.

If you’re enthralled by the magic of Greek mythology you’ll love the final instalment to Fry’s retellings, ODYSSEY, a legendary voyage of peril, temptation, loss and epic adventure.

Review of 'Mythos' on 'Goodreads'

Very well written. Fry does a great job of weaving the crazy stories into something more palpable. It does take a dip about 2/3rds of the way through, but other than that it's pretty good.
