Just started listening (and reading) Stephen Fry's
Mythos. This is his modern re-telling of the classic Greek myths, and I've heard nothing but good things about it. Not available yet in North America, so if you want to read it, you'll need to do some temporary geographic shifting, but it is going to be worth it. Not only is Fry a gifted writer, but he's also a superb narrator. And these are wonderful tales, shifted to the modern world.
