Athena: The Story of a Goddess

A breathtaking graphic novel by two super sisters. All hail Athena: goddess and mighty warrior. Long ago, in Ancient Greece, there lived a woman who – wait! No! Athena was a goddess, no less: the daughter of Zeus. Unlike lesser mortals, this deity of wisdom and war wasn’t born. She sprang out of her father’s head in a blaze of lightning, clad in armour and ready to fight. That’s how her story starts. So what’s the rest of it like? Well – it has monsters, heroes, daring deeds, bold acts of mercy and terrible wars. All set in a world where gods and humans meet, clash and fall in love. With an unforgettable heroine who is headstrong and fearless, yet wise…
