Zeus's version of the Theseus myth is totally fabricated! Theseus went into the labyrinth all right, but the only thing he did in there was get lost. He never killed the Minotaur. Zeus made the whole thing up so everyone would think the Minotaur was gone for good. Hades, King of the Underworld, sets the record straight on the story of Theseus and the Minotaur.

I love this series! I have always loved the greek myths, but I have never seen them portrayed this way! Hades retells the myths, because they are lies told by his little brother Zeus! Funny, modern, and hip, this is a great way to introduce the myths to a new generation! I only wish there were more!

My 9 year old likes all the myth-o-mania books and re-reads them often. They tell the stories while entertaining the children with the narration.
