Publisher's Synopsis
Hercules was once known as the greatest of Heroes, far superior to mighty Achilles or wily Odysseus. His story was one of tragedy and hardship beyond any other and yet in the modern world his tale is often relegated to the bedtime stories of children; wiped clean of all the horrors and hardships endured by the son of Zeus. This modern retelling of the Hercules myth attempts to redress this grievance and brings Hercules back to us with all the tragedy that made the story of his great labours and journeys a favourite amongst the ancients for so many centuries. Contained in this work is the compleat collection of short stories in the son of Zeus series including a final story not available as a stand alone work.
