I haven\u2019t read much about Hera and she\u2019s usually portrayed as Zeus\u2019s jealous, cruel, scheming and vindictive wife. It was nice to read about her as a fully fleshed out, complex character. I found this book very entertaining. The book touches on some well-known myths. The defeat of the Titans and the birth of the Olympian Gods. The trials of Hercules. Jason and the Argonauts and their search for the Golden Fleece. Zeus creating humans. Prometheus stealing fire from the Gods to give it to humans. I\u2019d recommend this. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">4\/5<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t<!-- .entry-footer --><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Hera, immortal goddess and daughter of the ancient Titan Cronus, helps her brother Zeus to overthrow their tyrannical father, she dreams of ruling at his side.
