goes on the adventure of a lifetime in this first graphic novel
adapted from the popular Heroes in Training series! The terrible
Titans--merciless giants who enjoy snacking on humans--have
dominated the earth and driven the world into chaos. But their rule
is about to be put to the test as a group of young Olympians
discover their powers and prepare to righteously rule the
universe... Ten-year-old Zeus is mystified (and super-annoyed) by
the fact that he keeps getting hit by lightning. Every. Single.
Year. Still, it's by far the most interesting thing that happens to
him. He's never been far from the cave where he grew up and is
beginning to think he'll never have a real adventure. But Zeus gets
his wish--and a lot more than he bargained for--when he is
kidnapped by dangerous, giant Titans! In a scramble for a weapon to
defend himself, Zeus grabs an actual thunderbolt from a stone. Its
incredible power keeps the Titans at bay, and its mysterious

the evil Cronus. Armed with his trusty thunderbolt (named Bolt, of
course), Zeus is on an adventure of a lifetime--and a journey to
fulfill his destiny as King of the Gods.
