What to expect
Monsters from mythology finally get to tell their side of the story, in this hilarious series for fans of Loki, Horrible Histories and Pamela Butchart.
"A charming, funny and hugely enjoyable reimagining of Greek mythology. Perfect for fans of Loki." Anna James
When people hear Polyphemus is a cyclops, they always assume he's a big scary MONSTER with one huge eye who EATS PEOPLE.
The truth is, YES, he is big, and he does have one huge eye, and ok he does OCCASIONALLY eat people… but THAT’S NOT THE WHOLE STORY!
All he ever wanted was to throw THE GREATEST PARTY OF ALL TIME! But then Odysseus arrived, and it all went very, VERY, wrong…
