Publisher's Synopsis
The gods and goddesses of Greek mythology have inspired painting, sculpture, literature and music, books and movies. Their stories continue to influence Western culture, despite the fact that the civilization that created them disappeared thousands of years ago. Author Michelle M. Houle skillfully weaves together the threads of the gods and goddesses of wars, love affairs, and personal quests for power, as well as their very creation. Each story is complemented by expert commentary written by scholars and specialists on Greek mythology.
