"Theseus" is one of four wonderful Greek Hero retellings from Geraldine McCaughrean, with cover illustrations by Jason Cockroft.

Geraldine McCaughrean is one of the most highly-acclaimed living children's writers, and is particularly renowned for her masterly retellings of traditional tales.

She is the winner of the Carnegie Medal, Guardian Children's Fiction Award and the Whitbread Award (twice).

Geraldine McCaughrean and Jason Cockcroft are reunited - the prizewinning team behind the Blue Peter Book of the Year winner, "A Pilgrim's Progress".

This book is perfect for fans of adult authors such as Mary Renault, or for readers of Adele Geras's "Troy".

Myths and legends are required reading for the National Curriculum.
