Great Content - Hideous Presentation
It's not what it sounds like ... in fact, it's better. I already have a couple ancient editions of Edith Hamilton's books and a couple others that are wonderful but, fortunately, this isn't your typical Greek/Roman Mythology tome - very little of it is that, actually, and what is included is by some Apollodorus guy I'd never heard of so it's going to be all new! "Table of Contents" in quotes because it is even more hideously formatted than the Complete Shakespeare collection also from Everlasting Flames where only lobotomized monkeys work in the desktop publishing department. This DIFFICULT to navigate table of contents IS IN ALL CAPS AND EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER OF EVER SINGLE WORK IS IN IT SO YOU HAVE TO SWIPE THROUGH DOZENS OF PAGES JUST TO GET PAST THE ODYSSEY ... I've found oodles of public domain eBooks people make for free just for the public good that look fantastic. There's no excuse not to take a few minutes and format these collections so they don't make you feel like paying only $2.99 was probably too much.
