In the newest of the New York Times-bestselling Olympians series, author/artist George O'Connor focuses on Hephaistos, the god of forge and fire.

Thrown from Mount Olympus as a newborn and caught by Thetis and Eurynome, who raised him on the island of Lemnos, Hephaistos had an aptitude for creating beautiful objects from a very young age. Despite his rejection from Olympus, he swallowed his anger and spent his days perfecting his craft. His exquisitely forged gifts and weapons earned him back his seat in the heavens, but he was not treated as an equal--his brothers and sisters looked down at him for his lame leg, and even his own wife, Aphrodite, was disloyal. In this installment of the bestselling Olympians series, witness Hephaistos' wrath as he creates a plan that'll win him the respect he deserves.
