OMG Classics, the greatest stories ever told . . . in texts. Imagine: What if Mount Olympus got WiFi and the gods and goddesses had smartphones? The classic Greek myths get new life in irreverent and hilarious texts and posts!

If you have trouble telling Perseus from Theseus (#Greek2Me) or have ever wondered about Oedipus' tragic dating profile or why Medusa's Instagram never got traction—this satirical book of Greek myths retold for the Internet age is for you!
