Book Description
You may know him as the broad-shouldered, long-haired cartoon character from the Disney movie, but Hercules, or Heracles, was far more than that to the Greeks. He was a hero who simply could not be stopped, no matter what job he was given or what monster he faced. From the time he was a baby and strangled the serpents Hera sent to his crib until Zeus made him immortal, Hercules outshone all other mortals. Read about the monsters he faced and the tricks he used to beat them. Hear their final thoughts as they went up against this mighty warrior—and lost. Find out why Hera was so angry with the young hero that she spent years trying to ruin his life. Meet Hercules—half man, half god, and all adventure!

Book Description
The heart-pounding conclusion to the Daughter of Sparta series forces Daphne to face her past, her deepest fears, and an enemy who can defeat even the all-powerful gods of Olympus in this epic reimagining of classic Greek mythology, for fans of Circe. After fighting in the Trojan War against her own people, Daphne is plagued by memories of her family, of her shortcomings, of her lover, Apollo, and of the secrets he and the gods keep. As she reels from the horrendous sacrifice she had to make and her own failure in the battle for Troy, she knows the Titans are out there—just beyond the island of Aeaea where she has taken refuge—raging a war against the world. As Daphne struggles to regain her will to fight as well as rein in the new abilities that have been thrust upon her, the gods call for her help once more. But it has been prophesized that she will bring about the ruin of Olympus and the downfall of Sparta, just as she caused the destruction of Troy. Now, as she begins to witness her terrible destiny coming true, she must become a hero to rival those of myth and save the gods, her people, and the world. Or she will watch it all burn around her. Claire M. Andrews has crafted a jaw-dropping conclusion to an epic series that gives women a powerful place among Greek mythology, flipping the world of gods and goddesses on its head. This breakneck race to the finish will have readers devouring its pages late into the night with one mind blowing twist after another, in a finale fit for a heroine who rivals any Ancient Greek hero.

Book Description
Murder Most Foul is a literary study aimed at a general audience that links and compares several great works of world literature to themes of violence and suffering. Included are Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey, Herman Melville’s Moby Dick, and several works of the great Greek tragedians—Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. The gods of Greek mythology, led by the great god Zeus, were instrumental in causing the pain and strife. The author makes the point that death and destruction, war and violence assert themselves everywhere in great works, and thus draws a conclusion that it is part and parcel of existence in all eras of mankind. The title is taken from Hamlet, words spoken to Hamlet by the ghost of his murdered father.

Book Description
A goddess bound by duty and the god who’ll sacrifice everything to set her free. Persephone, goddess of spring, is sheltered by her powerful Olympian mother, Demeter. Yet, against her mother's stern decree to shun all men, be they mortal or divine, Persephone finds herself ensnared by the allure of a mysterious stranger wandering through her sanctuary. In clandestine rendezvous spanning countless moons, Persephone's fascination blooms into an unexpected love, only to unveil that her paramour is no mere mortal but the enigmatic Hades, sovereign ruler of the shadowed realm beneath the earth. Despite the whispers of dread from the mountaintop goddesses, Persephone glimpses the benevolent heart within the god of the Underworld. Torn between living in a world where she is beholden to obedience and a life of ruling alongside the god who has stolen her heart, Persephone ultimately chooses freedom. As Demeter's fury erupts in the wake of her daughter's perceived abduction, the earth quakes with her wrath, threatening to unravel both mortal and divine realms in her relentless pursuit to reclaim Persephone. Discover a world where the death of innocence becomes a rebirth of self. The Flower and the Flame reimagines the myth of Hades and Persephone, shining a light on the dark road to becoming the master of one’s own fate.
