Bookroo's summary

In a world where gods and mortals collide, Hera, the formidable Queen of the Gods, holds the power to shape destinies. Heroes like Hercules seek her favor, navigating a realm filled with monsters, romance, and explosive challenges. As Hera's influence looms large, alliances are forged and tested. Will these heroes earn her patronage, or will they fall victim to the whims of the divine? Dive into a vibrant retelling of Greek myths where ancient tales meet superhero flair, and discover the true power behind the goddess who even Zeus fears.

From the publisher

The story of Hera, Queen of the Gods, and the heroes who won her favor. Volume 3 of Olympians, Hera: The Goddess and Her Glory, introduces readers to the Queen of the Gods and Goddesses in the Pantheon. This volume tells the tales of the many heroes who sought and won Hera’s patronage, most notably Hercules. In Olympians, O’Connor draws from primary documents to reconstruct and retell classic Greek myths. But these stories aren’t sedate, scholarly works. They’re action-packed, fast-paced, high-drama adventures with monsters, romance, and not a few huge explosions. O’Connor’s vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to undeniable life, in a perfect fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology. This title has Common Core connections.
