Story
In this classic TV soundtrack, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie explore a seemingly inexhaustible list of subjects with a delicious turn of phrase and elaborate wordplay. The hilarity includes regular acts such as not so super spy Tony Mercheson and his boss Control, yuppies, John and Peter and the critics. With four brilliant series of great satire, comic genius and hilarious use of language, the show cemented Fry & Laurie as a double act and paved the way for their future stardom.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Almost as good as Homer's Illiad
Stephen Fry proved again, needlessly, that when it comes to Greek Mythology and the stories therein no one tells it better.

Great story and wonderful narration
Its been an great experience with Fry's Myths, Heroes and this one. Enjoyed every bit of story telling.
Some parts were unnessarily extended with a kind of boring dialogue. Otherwise an enjoyable listen.

Epic
Stephen Fry brings to life the characters and the interweaving plotlines of this timeless epic. While listening to Fry's narration you experience the emotions of the characters. When he describes the massacre of the Trojans, the carnage unleashed by Achilles after his friend's death you are teleported to the battlefield. This is a must listen for fans of mythology!

A Fantastic Depiction of a Great Tragedy
I have to say it was painful at times to hear about the unspeakable acts done in the Trojan War. I for my part am a supporter of Troy and all its tragedy since I have heard about the Iliad. But this book reinforced that idea in me. Humans are capable of the unspeakable cruelty and the greatest of tragedies. This book is a fine Example
