I feel like you'd have to get the audio book for this. And I'm not a fan of audio books at all. But to hear him read it would probably be way better.

Myths were meant to be shared around the campfire, and Stephen Fry has got an incredibly warm and intelligent voice.

The audio books are amazing. Definitely must haves if you have the slightest interest in Greek Mythology.

He's such a great talent. His audiobook has been (may still be) up on YouTube to hear a sample.

For this series (there are three volumes released and the fourth is due in April) the audiobooks are the only way to go. Yes, you can "hear" Fry's words in your head as you read. But really hearing them as he performs the narration aloud--there's no comparison. Simply outstanding.

First checked on Libby and the state library system in Tennessee has the first audio book in this series and 43 people have holds on the single copy. The state library in Kentucky doesn't have any of the series. I went ahead and bought this. Thanks.

You can open the audible app. Or https://www.audible.com/pd/145218...cation=pdp
Sadly, for me it's *$12.99* — damn these new personalized pricing algorithms from amazon 😕
