The Olympiansby George O’Connor

In Olympians, the author draws from primary documents to reconstruct and retell classic Greek myths. But these stories aren't sedate, scholarly works. They're action-packed, fast-paced, high-drama adventures with monsters, romance, and not a few huge explosions. The vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to life, in a perfect fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology.
