    About this ebook

    Deep in the heart of enemy territory, through mountainous seas and uncharted lands, Jason and his fearless crew, the Argonauts, do battle with giants, dragons, monsters and a merciless sea god, to bring the legendary Golden Fleece back to Greece. Thrillingly retold for today's readers, this heroic tale of myths and monsters in the ancient world remains as fresh and exciting as the day it was first written.

      A prince named Jason went on an adventure to find the golden fleece. The current king made him do so to become king because he was greedy.In his travels to find the fleece, he visited a king and killed the harpies that terrorized him. He also fought two bulls made of bronze that breathed fire and killed people. He went through two rocks that clashed together and destroyed ships. And married Medea, but awhile after he met another girl that he wanted to marry, and Medea got angry and tried to kill him.There are a lot of other books that I would rather read, but if you have to pick between Greek myths, then I would choose Jason.
