Olympians: Hera: The Goddess and Her Glory -- George O'Connor, Paperback

"The generation weaned on the Marvel Universe will find much to love in O'Connor's 12-book series." --New York Times

George O'Connor's vibrant and kinetic art brings ancient tales to life in the bestselling Olympians series. This fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology is perfect for fans of Percy Jackson! There is only one thing Zeus, King of the Gods, truly fears.

Not the many-headed Hydra. Not the towering Gigantes. Not even his powerful brother Poseidon, god of the sea. Monsters, Titans, and rival gods alike have all fallen before him.

But Zeus does fear one force in all of Olympus: his wife, Hera.

Hera, Goddess of the air, the sky, and the heavens, is as powerful as she is relentless. Patron of the cunning Jason and relentless adversary of the mighty Heracles, she stands as Zeus's equal--and in matters of wrath, perhaps his superior.

Where Zeus rules through thunder and authority, Hera rules through intelligence, vengeance, and unwavering will. In a world of gods and monsters, even the King of Olympus must tread carefully around the Queen.
