Arthur Leywin may have survived the Relictombs, but he immediately finds himself embroiled in something far more complex and dangerous: Alacryan politics. Accused of crimes he didn’t commit, Arthur is forced to defend himself without drawing the attention of his most powerful enemies.

It is a race against time, however, as the greatest threat of the war so far closes in on Arthur’s loved ones in Dicathen.

Nie sind monströsere Gefahren überwunden und rachsüchtigere Götter überlistet worden als in der griechischen Antike. Stephen Fry haucht den Sagen um Perseus, Herakles & Ödipus neues Leben ein.

Er zeigt, dass hinter jedem Helden eine Heldin steht und dass es der Auflehnung der Helden gegen Zeus & Co. bedurfte, um der Welt von uns Menschen den Weg zu bereiten.

Uno de los cuentos clásicos más populares de todos los tiempos para descubrir con los más pequeños y disfrutar en familia.
