Re: Greek Mythology
Iliad > Aeneid > oddyssey.
don't read any encyclopedic. you're not going to enjoy learning that X is the god of Y that was song of Z. maybe a quick browse to get things straight in your head, then just get into a classic. classicist's reccomendations are all spot on.
To this day, my favorite thing I've ever done in school was reading the Aeneid in latin. I really regret not keeping up with it now and wish i could get back to reading level latin.
