Zeus and Hercules face a very hungry giant in this latest Heroes in Training chapter book!
Zeus and Hercules may have gotten a scale from the nine-headed hydra, but that isnât enough for King Eurystheus to forgive Hercules for egging his temple. For their next task, the Oracle Pythia reveals that, to make Eurystheus happy, they have to get the golden belt from the queen of the Amazonsâa band of warrior girls.
Although the Amazons are friendly enough, thereâs just one problemâŚthey think that boys are stinky! And Hercules hasnât been great at getting people to like him.
But before they even reach the Amazons, they are caught by the awful giant Alkyoneus. He has seven daughters to feed, and the boys would make for a perfect snack. Can Zeus and Hercules escape his clutches and get the belt in time? Or will they end up in hot water?
