Description
A magnificent collector's edition. From the birth of Zeus, through Prometheus, Pandora, and Helen of Troy, Odysseus, Jason and the Argonauts, Greek myths, and later Roman ones, are full of passion and vividly narrated. The gods are jealous of their powers, subject to powerful outbursts of love, and always seek revenge. The dark forces of the ancient world have been held back by a resourceful and emerging civilization, which formed the foundation of Western culture, ensuring the tradition of fairy-tale stories that are told here.
Flame Tree collector's editions present the foundations of speculative fiction, authors, myths, and stories without which 20th-century imaginative literature would not exist, bringing the best, most influential, and most fascinating works into an impressive and collectible library. Each book includes a new introduction and a glossary of terms.
Fascinating titles and a very wide range of authors are synonymous with Flame Tree Publishing.
