Don Nardo is a historian and award-winning writer who specializes in the ancient world, especially the civilizations of Greece and Rome. He began as a actor and worked with the National Shakespeare Company before turning to writing screenplays and teleplays and, soon afterward, devoting much of his time to historical research and writing. In the past two decades, he has published nearly two hundred volumes on diverse historical topics. And having earned numerous favorable reviews, he is widely recognized as the country's leading writer of historical works for young adults. He is also versed in various other subjects and as a result is frequently asked by publishers to write books on a number of scientific and literary topics.

Mr. Nardo also composes and arranges orchestral music, having started composing in his early teens. Over the years he has turned out more than eighty musical works, including 2 symphonies, 4 string quartets, several concertos, a film score, incidental music for stage productions, and several commissions, the most recent a double concerto for violin and Portuguese guitar written for two noted musicians. He is also the resident composer and arranger for the Amadis Orchestra, based in Connecticut. For more information, see his official web site at www.nardopublishing.com and his more extensive biography at Wikipedia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Greek mythology brought to life!
Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2012
I've read a lot of Don Nardo's books over the years, many of which are written for young people. I love the way he conveys a large amount of information to the readers without talking down to them or dumbing down the text. In this book and the others in this series, he's done it again, only in this case the publisher has spruced up his text with great pictures and graphics that look like they came from a graphic novel. There's plenty more colorful pics on the inside to match the fantastic image of Medusa on the cover. The combination of flashy visuals and great text make Greek mthology really come to life for the reader, and I really do recomend this and the other books in the series.
