Good book
Thankful
Good reading too, except for when English words are incorrectly pronounced to such a degree that the meaning of these words are lost. Here is room for improvement, at least for the kind lady with a possibly Slavic, maybe Russian, accent. Clear articulation is also much appreciated. Some readers are very helpful in that they read with a great ability to speak with the listener in mind.

Ladies foreign accent detracted from clear understanding of the reading.
Ok book but very PG version of history/mythology.
Enjoyable learning.
I love this series. It makes history come alive through the lives of famous men. I have enjoyed listening to this series as I drive with my kids, and we have all learned a lot. The readers do a great job, although a few have accents that are hard for my kids to understand.
horrible writing

the narrator did a great job.. but the author derided it was better to call all the Greek gods by the Roman names instead of the Greek names...

Listen if you have a thick accent don't read for audiobooks. This Latina woman butchered literally every pronoun in the story.
