Heroes
ISBN : 9781405940368
Join Jason aboard the Argo as he seeks the Golden Fleece, and see Atalanta outrun all men, before being tricked with golden apples. Soldier through Heracles' twelve labours, shiver in terror under the stone-cold gaze of Medusa and witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx. From white-knuckle chases to twisting labyrinths, impossible puzzles to blood-curdling monsters, Heroes is filled with dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales of what we mortal men and women are truly capable of — at our heroic best.
Mythos
ISBN : 9781405934138
No one loves and quarrels, desires and deceives as boldly or brilliantly as Greek gods and goddesses. In Stephen Fry's vivid retelling we gaze in wonder as wise Athena is born from the cracking open of the great head of Zeus, and follow doomed Persephone into the dark and lonely realm of the Underworld. We shiver when Pandora opens her jar of evil torments and watch with joy as the legendary love affair between Eros and Psyche unfolds. Mythos captures these extraordinary myths for our modern age — in all their dazzling and deeply human relevance.
