Who helped Theseus defeat the Minotaur? How did Antaboga the serpent create the world? Why was Arachne turned into a spider? And what did Loki do to bring about the end of the world? Find out in Falling Out of the Sky, a treasury of poems about myths and legends by twenty modern poets. Featuring mischievous gods, ferocious villains, witches, wizards and monsters – who might not all be as monstrous as the stories say…
