HARD TIMES FOR HEROES

The series of illustrated humorous mythology continues "MYTHS AND HEROES" with new titles. In the new book, "HERAKLES: Hard times for heroes" we follow the adventures of little Heracles who reflects on the 12 labors he has not yet been able to perform. To clean the stables of Augeas or to drown the Nemean lion, a little help would be useful. But his friends are already quite busy with a certain Jason, whose mission is to find the golden fleece...
