Amazing book
Amazing book, great stories and lovely illustrations.I was worried about the price decrease but checking the whole book, there were no reprint issues as there was in another book I bought in the same delivery. I recommend people be wary of that because I had a taschen book with over 20 pages misprinted in German when it was on offer on Amazon. The book is dinged on the corners and edges but I assume that was in transit. If not, maybe that was why it was cheaper.Regardless, it's not reason enough for me to return this one, it's still a great book.

Nice book
It’s a lovely coffee table book, and I’ve yet to look through the whole thing but the quality of the item and content are worth the money. I have a few Taschen books so trust the quality.

Difficult to follow at times
I have a degree in Eng Lit but I am not really au fait with Greek myths and thought this book looked ok.However I found these stories to be quite stilted and at times they didnt seem to flow properly almost like we hadnt been told something relevant to the plot. I had hoped they would bring me up to speed but gave up about 25 % of the way through. Very very boring. I will charity shop this as it might do someone to cut up for collage.

Cheap paper
I own other Taschen books and the books are beautiful. This one is printed on cheap paper and dulled images. What happened to the high quality books?

Different paper ... but still great
A lovely book filled with wonderful stories, great art throughout - super pleased I bought this book from Taschen. The paper is slightly different, not the glossy paper that you usually get from Taschen, but I found it quite reasonable for the book / art as well.

very academic
very dense text...not as much fun to read as some other other books on this topic.

Beautiful illustrated.
A worthy add to any library. Explains the details behind all those myths you kind of sort of thought you knew. Gorgeous book.
