The Olympian gods, hailing from a divine ancestry that included the
ever-scheming Gaea, the malevolent Uranus, the voracious Cronus, the
mighty Titans and the ruthless one-hundred-armed Giants, dominated the
Ancient Greeks’ fantasies and actions. Read about the love affairs of
all-powerful Zeus, Hera’s fits of jealousy and anger, Hermes’s cunning
tricks, the majestic craft of toiling Hephaestus, Athena’s wisdom, the
mishaps of Ares and Aphrodite, the adventures of wine-maker Dionysus,
and many more, in this captivating adaptation of Greek mythology by
Sirmo Kapoutsi, vividly illustrated by Nestoras Xouris.
