Perseus, with help from his mechanical owl Bubo, faces the Cyclops in order to bring peace to a village.

Argus has been at peace for five years. Perseus has defeated the gorgon Medusa and slain the Kraken, assuming the throne. His people celebrate as he and his wife, Queen Andromeda expect their first born. But not everyone rejoices for the royal couple. The evil Calibus, once thought dead, has been released by Hades from the underworld. The Pretender has taken his bride, his position, and his favor of Zeus, and now he seeks to claim what is rightfully his own. And with news of a baby boy, he may do just that.

What is it about ancient monsters that popular culture still finds so enthralling? Why do the monsters of antiquity continue to stride across the modern world? In this book, the first in-depth study of how post-classical societies use the creatures from ancient myth, Liz Gloyn reveals the trends behind how we have used monsters since the 1950s to the present day, and considers why they have remained such a powerful presence in our shared cultural imagination. She presents a new model for interpreting the extraordinary vitality that classical monsters have shown, and their enormous adaptability in finding places to dwell in popular culture without sacrificing their connection to the ancient world. Her argument takes her readers through a comprehensive tour of monsters on film and television, from the much-loved creations of Ray Harryhausen in Clash of the Titans to the monster of the week in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, before looking in detail at the afterlives of the Medusa and the Minotaur. She develops a broad theory of the ancient monster and its life after antiquity, investigating its relation to gender, genre and space to offer a bold and novel exploration of what keeps drawing us back to these mythical beasts. From the siren to the centaur, all monster lovers will find something to enjoy in this stimulating and accessible book.
