Book synopsis

The rightful prince of Iolcus, brought up in exile by the great centaur Chiron, Jason has just one goal in mind - to save his people from the tyrannical rule of his uncle, Pelias. Warned about his downfall by Apollo's Oracle at Delphi, Pelias challenges Jason to do the impossible - retrieve the Golden Fleece from the kingdom of Colchis - in return for the throne. Thus flags off one the greatest voyages in Greek mythology - the voyage of Jason and his group of warriors, the Argonauts. Overcoming tremendous odds, Jason moves relentlessly towards his goal. But he is not unaided in his mission. Insanely in love with him, the sorceress Medea ensures Jason's success at every turn, while being unaware of the larger divine intervention at work. So then what is Jason's achievement, what is his victory in a preordained world? Does Jason remain ignorant of the truth of his triumph, or does he come to terms with his flaws to gain a deeper realisation of his destiny? Retold in the graphic medium with amazing visual effects, this enduring tale of adventure, comradeship, temptation, and betrayal makes one reflect on the true meaning and value of heroic success.
