"Ye Gods!" is a light and humorous read as Jill Dudley's travels around Greece, touching on the myths and legends of the old gods and how the early Greek Orthodox Church emerged from its pagan past. It is also her own and sometimes comical search for enlightenment. Jill is accompanied by her husband Harry whose reluctance to travel and probe the unknown is the perfect foil for her enthusiastic explorations.
It is ideal for anyone interested in Greece who would like to learn about its myths and legends whilst being entertained; the ten chapters take the reader from Athens, up Mount Olympus, to Mt. Athos (the Holy Mountain), to the islands and ends in Greek Cyprus covering not only the wonderful and interesting people they meet, but also a humorous and insightful look into Dudley’s faith - or rather, as she puts it, “lack of it”.
