The book tells the adventure of Jason, who gathers the bravest heroes of Greece and sets sail for Colchis to obtain the Golden Fleece. On that legendary journey, the Argonauts face monsters, titans and storms sent by the gods, and must rely on cunning and strength to survive. Riordan's narrative is based on the Argonautica of Apollonius of Rhodes and other mythological tales, and covers Jason's life from his birth to his tragic end.
It belongs to the Clásicos Adaptados collection from Vicens Vives, with auxiliary material for secondary education. The edition includes an introduction, notes and activities, and illustrations by Jason Cockcroft.
Aimed at secondary-school students and young readers approaching mythology and the classics of Western literature for the first time.
