Bookroo's summary
Forget what you know about Pandora's box. In this twist on the classic myth, it's Zeus's curiosity that sets off a chain of events, not Pandora's. Hades, ruler of the Underworld, unveils the real story behind the infamous box. What secrets did Zeus hide, and how will they reshape the world? Dive into a tale where the gods' true intentions are revealed, and nothing is as it seems.
From the publisher
The story about Pandora opening a box and releasing terrible evils into the world? Totally made up! Pandora couldn’t have cared less about what was in that box. The one who was really dying to know was Zeus. Zeus gave Pandora a box all right. A box full of really nasty items. But disease? Pain? Greed? No way. Hades, King of the Underworld, reveals the true story behind the Pandora myth.
