Beschreibung
If Hercules Braver is going to survive his new secondary
school, he has to live up to his name, fast. He needs to become
strong and tanned and popular, like a Greek hero. Not weak and
pale and unpopular, like a Greek yoghurt.

But his bid for popularity ends up saddling him with a set of
impossible tasks ... like cleaning out the monster-riddled school
pond, facing up to the school bully and finding the headmaster's
missing cat.

Then Herc's charming, impressive birth dad turns up after years
living in Greece, and Hercules thinks his problems are solved.
With God-like strength and awe-inspiring powers, could his dad even
be ... the real Zeus?!

And will Hercules learn what it truly means to be a hero?

  • A hilarious, accessible package brilliantly
    illustrated by David O'Connell. Ideal for fans of Louie Stowell's
    Loki, Maz Evans, Marvel's Thor films and
    Disney Hercules.
  • Hercules Braver's are loosely based on the first three
    Labours of Hercules, ideal for all young fans of Greek mythology!
  • Warm-hearted representation of blended families and alternate
    father figures.

Praise for the first Hercules book

"With a generous smattering of Greek mythology, this laugh-out-loud
tale explores the nature of friendship, love and loyalty
with a perfect mix of humour and tenderness."

"A brilliant, accessible and VERY funny book" -
