The book contains 20 stories as wide-ranging as Theseus and the Minotaur to Thor's Hammer to the Journey of the Monkey King. They are split thematically into six chapters: In the Beginning, Gods and Goddesses, Journeys and Quests, Fantastic Worlds, Monsters and Mythical Creatures and Magic and Trickery.
These stories are interspersed with spreads which bring together different myths in an interesting unifying theme. Featured, for example, are the many weapons used by the gods, the amazing objects collected by heroes and heroines on their quests and the different relics found in the underworld.
