Olympians: Dionysos: Olympians

Autor George O'Connor
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mar 2022 – vârsta până la 14 ani
In the final volume of the New York Times-bestselling Olympians graphic novel series, author/artist George O'Connor focuses on Dionysos, the god of wine and madness.

The Olympians saga draws to a close with the tale of Dionysos, 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.

Recenzii

Review in 1/1 Booklist
O'Connor unveils his new Olympians graphic-novel series with this story of the daddy of Greek gods. Most immediately striking about this, aside from the exciting artwork, is the care O'Connor takes to visualize the creation myth that begins with Gaea creating and taking as a husband the sky, Ouranos. Their children--the Titans and other proto-Olympian entities--are often neglected or at best murkily covered, but here they're vividly portrayed with all the magnificence of their beyond-good-and-evil power. After this breathtaking and lengthy sequence, Zeus enters the scene to grow from a feisty nymph-needling youth to a lightning bolt-wielding avenger. The extended, earth-shattering battle he wages with his father, Kronos, takes up the bulk of the story, delivering page after page of cataclysmic blows with the sensibility and hyperkinetic pacing of a literary superhero comic. While O'Connor includes a generous bounty of bonus materials to gratify myth hounds, this series could well become the initiation point for a new cadre of acolytes. New volumes should come quickly, with Athena's book due in April 2010.
Review in 2/1 "Publisher's Weekly"
O'Connor ("Kapow!"; "Journey into Mohawk Country") embarks on a new project: a series of graphic novels for young readers about Greek mythology ("Athena: Grey-Eyed Goddess" follows in April, with "Hera" and "Hades" in the pipeline). While the D'Aulaires' "Book of Greek Myths" is the gold standard for illustrated introductions to Greek mythology, O'Connor offers a modern take with a new view of these "original superhero stories" with gritty yet heroic art and spare prose that lets the myths speak for themselves. The story is the one most schoolchildren know--the Titans created Zeus and Hera, as well as the Cyclopes, and adventure ensued--but O'Connor brings the young gods to life with memorable compositions and attention to detail (childlike fear on Hera's face as she navigates the treacherous new wo
