Good but to much inappropriate stuff

I like the book a lot and it teaches you a lot about Greek culture and myths.However, I hate the fact that it is inappropriate in some bits and it uses the words seduce, seductive, lay with (someone) and an inappropriate word that I cannot even say so if you hate these words than you should reconsider buying the book but in general it is great.

Waste of a credit

This is fine for the kiddies. They probably won't even notice the mistakes in narration. Has more in common with Tanglewood Tales than a serious study (which the cover thumb nail leads one to expect).
If you want something to listen to while you are doing the housework, okay.
If you want a more in-depth studt, stick to Robert Graves, et al.

Narrator keeps messing up

I feel like this should have edited out the mistakes. Do not buy the great courses is better an every time the narrator messes up he clicks his fingers and starts again. It’s not even like this is a cheap book. Audible has really gone down hill lately
