An action-filled reimagining of the Greek myth, Jason and the Golden Fleece, unfolds in Iolkos, Thessaly, 1230 BC. King Pelias, haunted by his murderous past and a prophecy of his downfall, is alarmed when Jason, his nephew who survived an assassination attempt as a child, arrives to compete in the Games of Poseidon. Jason seeks revenge and the throne, but Pelias, cunning and powerful, sets an impossible task: to claim the throne, Jason must steal the legendary Golden Fleece from Colchis. To aid him, Jason assembles a band of Greece's finest warriors, the Argonauts, named after their ship. However, even with these formidable allies, Jason must navigate brutal challenges that threaten his mission and the lives of many. Praise for the author highlights his ability to distill the legend into a deeply researched historical epic, vividly bringing the story to life. Readers have noted the taste of salt air in the narrative, epic battles, and well-rounded characters in a brilliantly described world. The author has elevated a familiar legend into a new, realistic, and engrossing tale, combining historical realities with imaginative storytelling.
