I am Athena, the goddess of Athens. Of all the animals, I love the owl the most. I help people, but especially those who want to help themselves. In war, I am first, but I adore the arts and letters. I also like weaving. My weavings are better than the works of Arachne... With the Mythological Tales series, a new "reading" of ancient Greek myths is attempted. They are not old, oft-told stories of forgotten gods, but exciting action tales through which all the timeless human adventures, fears, and joys that have marked and still mark the human soul unfold.
