• Book Starts On Page 233

03 July, 2007

I order this book and when it arrived the first page was 233. I asked Amazon for a new book and they sent one immediately. The only problem is that it too started on page 233. Not want to go through the hassle again I ask for and was granted a refund. I just wish they would insure the books they send are not misprints.

• Well Done!

04 November, 2008

Groger Lancelyn Green retells the stories of the ancient Greek Heroes in a way that lends detail and continuity to those stories we have all heard. I had several "oh...that is how it hooks together" moments while reading. The actual reading level is probably appropriate for a 5th-6th grader, but the style and story-telling will grasp the attention of an older reader. This book would also be a fabulous "read-aloud" for a younger audience with interest in the Greek Heroes. Roger Green is obviously passionate about this subject and his passion shines through and grabs the reader. This is one the better books I have ever read about the ancient Greek heroes.

03 November, 2006

Green is deeply knowledgable of the myths-scholarly so- yet he presents same with simple clarity and I-want-to-know-what-happens-next suspence. Superb introductions to the myths for younger first-time myth readers. Behind the action suspence looms the enormous meanings of the archtypes which are implanted for memories' later work of 'reminding' the understanding as life experiences reflect them. Orders the myths for further ease of understanding.
