About the Book

"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, kinetic art brings ancient tales to life in the New York Times Bestselling series Olympians. This fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology is perfect for fans of Percy Jackson!

Nothing ever changes in the land of the dead. Deep in this hidden kingdom beneath the earth, countless spirits await the end of time. Hades, the lord of this dire realm, waits with them...until one day, the Lord of the Dead takes a wife. Or tries to, anyway.

And then all Hades breaks loose.



About the Author :
George O'Connor is the New York Times-bestselling author of Olympians, the series of graphic novels featuring the tragic, dramatic, and epic lives of the Greek Pantheon and its counterpart featuring the Norse Gods, the series Asgardians. His first graphic novel, Journey into Mohawk Country, pushed the boundaries of the genre, using as its sole text the actual historical journal of the seventeenth-century Dutch trader Harmen Meyndertsz van den Bogaert. He also illustrated acclaimed playwright Adam Rapp's Ball Peen Hammer. He teamed up with writer Daniel G. Newman on Unrig: How to Fix Our Broken Democracy, the first volume in the World Citizen Comics series. George is also the creator of popular picture books such as the New York Times-bestselling Kapow! and If I Had a Triceratops. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Review :

"An outstanding addition to a first-rate series." --Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)

"O'Connor's brand of classical mythology for modern sensibilities serves as a good introduction to the gods and settings of the Greek myths." --Publishers Weekly

"The writing is well done, the story line is interesting and moves quickly, the characters are colorful, and this adventure is exciting." --Children's Literature

"O'Connor's artwork remains as strong as ever, especially in the glorious illustrations of the underworld." --VOYA

"Atmospheric, with descriptions and images of the Underworld that are so captivating that readers will pore over those pages again and again. O'Connor's illustrations, filled with lots of color and haunting illuminations, are well suited to this exciting story and will attract even the most reluctant readers." --School Library Journal
