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!
Here’s where it all starts: the beginning of everything–the world, the gods, and even humanity. Mighty Kronos, the most terrifying of all the Titans, reigns as the unchallenged tyrant of the cosmos…until his son, the god Zeus, stands up and takes on his own father in a battle intense enough to shatter the universe! Who will emerge triumphant?

What reviewers said
"While O'Connor includes a generous bounty of bonus materials to gratify myth hounds, this series could well become the initiation point for a new cadre of acolytes.”
“Back matter includes notes, a bibliography, a list of recommended books for further reading, and discussion questions for readers, making it attractive for teachers and librarians for its information and depth of research. But that shouldn't stop tweens from enjoying the story.”
“Holy Cyclopes, here's a keeper.”
"While carefully adhering to the Greek legends, O'Connor endows these mythic characters with a freshness and magnetism that will attract even today's visually savvy youth.”
"This ultimate superhero story will appeal to anyone who enjoys Greek mythology or great comic art.”
“This will be a worthy lead-in or companion piece to Eric Shanower's Age of Bronze.”
"The generation weaned on the Marvel Universe will find much to love in O’Connor’s 12-book series."
