Summary |
"Hercules and Zeus may have gotten a scale from the nine-headed Hydra, but that isn't enough for King Eurystheus to forgive Hercules for egging his temple. For their next task, the Oracle Pythia reveals that, to make Eurystheus happy, Hercules and Zeus have to get a golden belt from the queen of the Amazons--a band of warrior girls. But before they even reach the Amazons, Zeus and his friend Ares are caught by the awful giant Alkyoneus. He has seven daughters to feed, and the boys would make a perfect snack for them. Can they escape his clutches and get the belt in time? Or will they all end up in hot water?"--back cover. |
