Heroes: volume II of Mythos. Stephen Fry. 2019.

Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes.

In this companion to his bestselling Mythos, Stephen Fry brilliantly retells the dramatic, funny, tragic and timeless tales of these heroic men and women in all their grit and glory.

Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests for the Golden Fleece. See Atalanta - who was raised by bears - outrun any man, before being tricked with golden apples. Soldier through the twelve Labours of Heracles, shiver in terror under the stone-cold gaze of the dreaded Gorgon, Medusa and witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx.
