The dispute of the goddesses over the golden apple of discord, the wrath of the mighty Achilles, the siege of the glorious city of Troy, the cunning with the wooden horse, the incredible adventures of the clever Odysseus – all these stories have been written and filmed many times before. But who could tell them better than the heroes and heroines themselves? More exciting than the Iliad, more varied than the Odyssey, and funnier than Hollywood, Frank Schwieger brings Greek myths to life for young readers. Also featured are: the sea goddess Thetis, Calypso, the irresistible nymph, Laocoön, the angry priest, and Circe, the animal-loving sorceress.
