The "World Myths" series gathers together enduring stories and captures their atmosphere and characters in fine-art illustrations. Each book covers a key theme that is common to all the world's myths, such as creation, epic journeys, warring gods and heroes and monsters. This volume is a collection of incredible voyages made in the quest of honour, glory or dazzling rewards, to challenge terrible monsters or obliterate enemies. The stories are full of intrepid characters and a rich pageant of gods and monsters. Superheroes, strange beasts and beautiful women overcome perilous obstacles, pit themselves against raging elements and visit fabulous lands.
