Not anything I consider really definitive. Not like Edith Hamilton for
the Greek mythology. The thing with so much of mythology is that it
was generally oral tradition so just reading one telling of the
stories is rarely THE story. And of course, with neo-paganism there's
been a lot of dilution as well. So I just read a random assortment of
it, some history, and try to sort wheat from chaff.

It's interesting though, I was watching Troy last night and realized
that I grew up more on greek mythology than judeo-christian. Not to
say that I'm really knowledgeable about greek mythology either, but it
was just an interesting self observation.
