Synopsis :

Welcome to the legendary story of Jason and the Golden Fleece: a tale of monsters, heroes, battles and gods.

The young boy Jason is raised on the Greek hillside by a centaur before he returns to his city to face the tyrant king.

Can Jason win the throne by gathering a crew of heroes, set sail to the edges of the world, and make it back with the Golden Fleece in hand?

Find out in our adventure story for 4 to 10 year olds, which tells one of the oldest and most exciting Greek myths.

À propos de l'auteur: Dr. Simon Spence studied for his Ph.D. at the University of Nottingham, looking at the myths of Jason, Perseus and Bellerophon. His book, The Image of Jason in Early Greek Myth, is the result of this work and is the most extensive analysis of the myth up to the fifth century B.C.

In 2013, Simon launched the Early Myths series, which brings the oldest myths stories to a new audience. Early Myths is a children's books series with beautiful illustrations inspired by some of the oldest Classical vase-paintings and sculptures. The aim is to bring some of the oldest myth characters to a young audience, to excite and inspire young minds with the oldest Greek tales.

Simon lives and works in Dublin, Ireland and has over twenty-five years experience in teaching Classical history, archaeology and myth.
