Books 2010: and the wind blows from Hesperides
Books 2010: 151
151. Apollodorus, The Library of Greek Mythology. OUP, Oxford, 1997. Translated by Robin Hard.
This is essentially a cheat-sheet to Greek mythology. A short précis of the genealogies of the gods and heroes, and their deeds down to the Trojan War. It's short, entertaining, and full of everything you never knew about the deeds of Hellenic yore.
I enjoyed it, which made it much less of a research slog.
