A new Olympian enters the mythic world

The final volume in George O’Connor’s Olympians series centers on Dionysos, whose path to Olympus begins with a mortal mother and unfolds through the discovery of wine, encounters with madness, and a confrontation with death. Hestia, goddess of the hearth and home, serves as the storyteller, relating his rise from a position at the heart of Olympus. The book brings Greek mythology into graphic-novel form, combining its ancient subject matter with superhero-inspired visual aesthetics. Its focus on Dionysos also gives the series a closing portrait of a god described as both the last Olympian and a possible beginning of a new kind of deity.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Ages 9–12 interested in graphic novels.
  • Fans of Greek mythology and legendary gods.
  • Readers who enjoy mythology presented with superhero-inspired visuals.

Book overview

"The generation weaned on the Marvel Universe will find much to love in O'Connor's 12-book series." --New York Times

George O'Connor's vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to life in the bestselling series Olympians. This fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology is perfect for fans of Percy Jackson!

Dionysos, is the last Olympian, and maybe, just maybe, the first of a new type of God. His story is told by the first Olympian herself, Hestia, Goddess of the hearth and home. From her seat in the center of Mt. Olympus, Hestia relates the rise of Dionysos, from his birth to a mortal mother, to his discovery of wine, his battles with madness and his conquering of death itself, culminating, finally, in his ascent to Olympus and Godhood.
