Voyage with Jason by Ken Catran
Forget the classic version of Jason and the Argonauts! This is a vivid, realistic account of the times, full of blood, battle and shattered myths. Recounted through the eyes of the ship's boy, Pylos, Voyage with Jason chronicles a quest through uncharted waters to unknown lands, seeking a fabulous treasure which is guarded by a fearsome monster. The Argonauts encounter disaster, intrigue and deception, and are exposed as all too human characters shrouded in mystery.
