    About this product

    Product Information

    The dazzling companion volume to the bestselling MYTHOS. There are heroes - and then there are Greek heroes Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes. In this companion to his bestselling Mythos, Stephen Fry brilliantly retells these dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales. Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests for the Golden Fleece. See Atalanta - who was raised by bears - outrun any man before being tricked with golden apples. Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the monster Chimera. Heroes is the story of what we mortals are truly capable of - at our worst and our very best.

      • Most favourable review

        Light touch and witty dialogue keeps the narrative moving along.

        Lively and informative account of the Heroes around the Myths. Loads of names and plenty of witty dialogue which maintains a light touch on what could be quite a dense narrative.

        Greek mythology novel

        Rich in Greek mythology knowledge. If you are learning to write novels, this could n be a good source. As a coach and mentor working with God and individuals, I was able to draw some literature to furnish a seminar using attention to detail.

      • Heroes

        Stephen Fry makes mythology accessible to all. It’s amusing and compelling all in one, on what can be a very dry subject.

      • Wish you’d give me time to read itn

        To be honest I’m only half way through. Enjoying it but not as good as Mythos.
