Odyssey

Rezensionen / Stimmen

Odyssey completes his Greek Myths series in marvellous fashion. . . Fry, a born storyteller, succeeds again in making the ancient stories accessible, gently modernising the language and dotting his journey with explanatory and often amusing footnotes * Irish Independent * Relatable and full of humour . . . Odyssey brings [the] four-book sequence satisfyingly to a close * Guardian * Outstandingly entertaining quartet of books . . . Fry breathes contemporary relevance into these ancient tales. As with his previous titles, he combines scholarly research with a lightness of touch, and his wry sense of humour and natural gift for storytelling make for a highly engaging read * Observer * A sweeping, engrossing story * i * Imaginative * Daily Mail * The familiar narrative bounds along in a chatty style, coloured with mildly revisionist insights into the characters * Daily Mail * Accessible storytelling and Fry brings warmth, exuberance and humour. Hard to beat * Guardian * A romp through the lives of ancient Greek gods. Fry is at his story-telling best . . . the gods will be pleased * The Times * A head-spinning marathon of legends * Guardian * An odyssey through Greek mythology. Brilliant - all hail Stephen Fry * Daily Mail *
