Perseus

This is a retelling of one of the most popular Greek myths, that of legendary hero Perseus. Perseus is the son of Zeus, king of the gods, and a mortal woman. Perseus' mother is pursued by a king who wants her hand in marriage. To get rid of Perseus, the king sends him on a seemingly impossible mission--to retrieve the head of the gorgon Medusa, whose very look can turn men to stone. Aided by the gods, Perseus takes on this mission, and along the way rescues a beautiful princess, Andromeda. When Perseus returns with the head, his surprised future father-in-law gets more than he bargained for.Storrie, Paul D. is the author of 'Perseus', published 2007 under ISBN 9780822575283 and ISBN 0822575280.
