Enter a world where anything is possible. A god could be a mountain or a
shower of gold. A nymph could be a stream or an echo in the wind. The
myths of ancient Greece are full of such wonders, as well as a host of
courageous heroes, cunning heroines, and terrible monsters. From the
tragedy of Persephone to the fearsome minotaur; from Perseus's quest for
Medusa to greedy King Midas, this collection includes a broad range of
the most well-known and celebrated myths. Each is skillfully retold by
Ann Turnbull, and readers young and old are welcomed into a golden world
of beauty, tragedy, and miracle.
