Only a few extraordinary mortals hold the distinguished title of hero... Jason, Theseus, Helen, Achilles, and Atalanta are among these mythical figures. Sometimes helped by the gods and sometimes hindered, they perform astonishing exploits of strength, bravery, and intelligence.

In this new illustrated collection, the stories of the Greek mortals and immortals, and their legendary exploits, tower as tall now as they have for thousands of years! Alternately rivals or allies, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, Artemis, Apollo, and Dionysus form a restless family, which Zeus has trouble appeasing. But the king of the gods is far from irreproachable himself! Join these twelve gods at the top of Olympus, where they will give you all their secrets, even the most incredible ones.

Never have these classic stories of Greek gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, been so sumptuously illustrated. Become reacquainted with your favorites through this beautiful art and design and lose yourself in their stories all over again.
