As a war tribute to Crete, King Aegeus of Athens is forced to give 14 tributes as a sacrifice to the minotaur, a creature that is half-man, half-bull. To complete his quest and save the tributes from a horrible fate, Theseus must travel to the heart of the Labyrinth and confront the ferocious beast himself. Exciting illustrations in graphic novel format and crafty story-telling bring the twisting tale to life. Ancient Facts throughout the book provide more information about the characters, settings, and primary sources of the original stories.
