'True History', Lucian's best-known and most entertaining work, is a parody of the tall stories of fantastic journeys narrated by Famous poets and historians. With his trademark wit and humour, Lucian informs his readers that he means to tell nothing but lies and impossibilities, and warns them not to believe a word he says.
