“A Herculean triumph of creative writing, and a joy to read.” –Alex Rowson, author of The Young Alexander
This should be the story of Hercules: his twelve labors, his endless adventures… Everyone’s favorite hero, right? Well, it’s not. This is the story of everyone else.- Alcmene: Herc’s mother (she has knives everywhere)
- Hylas: Herc’s first friend (they were more than friends)
- Megara: Princess of Thebes (she’ll tell you about the marriage)
- Eurystheus: Oversaw Herc’s labors (definitely did not hide in a jar)
- His friends, his enemies, his wives, his children, his lovers, his rivals, his gods and his victims It’s time to hear their stories. “Quick-paced and quick-witted… A refreshing take on an ancient tale.” –Booklist “Hercules had his story, now it’s time for everyone else to get their say. Wickedly fun and devilishly dark–the tell-all for our times.” –Cari Thomas, author of Threadneedle
