Aided by the reader, Hector must find hidden objects in order to assist such creatures as the Wyvern, the Kraken, and the Yeti, who have offered jewels in return for his help.

An illustrated encyclopedia of characters from Greek mythology, prepare to be amazed.

Can we learn how to be happy? Hector is a successful young psychiatrist. He's very good at treating patients in real need of his help. But many people he sees have no health problems: they're just deeply dissatisfied with their lives. Hector can't do much for them, and it's beginning to depress him. So when a patient tells him he looks in need of a holiday, Hector decides to set off round the world to find out what makes people everywhere happy (and sad), and whether there is such a thing as the secret of true happiness...

The aim of this book is to explore the realm of the imaginary world of Greek mythology and present the reader with a categorization of monstrosity, referring to some of the most noted examples in each category.

Pirates Hector, Sue, and George are crafty, bold, and all very proud about besting some of the most grizzly, gruesome monsters. But are they telling the truth? A few new visitors might just set the record straight. . . .
