Helden

Over three thousand years ago, they lived in Greece: the heroes this book is about.

Adventure still existed! There were cyclopes, centaurs, troops of warriors, and mysterious labyrinths. Going on a journey was an undertaking.

And the question was whether you would even return from it.

Yet, some young men set out. And not unnoticed. The deeds of men with names like Perseus, Heracles, and Jason were sung by poets, thinkers, and writers. These ancient stories describe fabulous events, of people who experienced unimaginable things.

But perhaps the greatest wonder is that, after all this time, we can still read about their adventures—retold in a contemporary and witty way.
