Here are the stories of ten great constellations - from Perseus to Hercules, including Pegasus, Argo, Andromeda and Cassiopeia. This magical introduction to the constellations twinkling above us portrays not just stars, but a vast realm of kings and queens, gods, heroes and mystical creatures. Each constellation is described in vivid prose, mixing fact and fiction, drawing on the latest scientific knowledge and the ancient gods after whom the constellations were named.
