Jupiter, king of the gods, Juno his wife, warrior Mars, Mercury
the messenger, Diana the goddess of hunting, as well as the
lesser gods and goddesses who controlled every part of Roman
life.
These
retellings make the ancient world live again, and transform
the old legends into unforgettable stories of suffering and
joy, disaster and triumph.
