  • Maintain hope with Pandora as her curiosity gets the best of her
  • Beware the Nemean Lion as Hercules repents for his misdeeds.
  • Be awestruck by the amazing Mount Olympus

These exciting retellings of ancient tales are consistent with the mythology behind them, while also capturing the creativity and whimsy of the stories with elaborate brick scenery. Brick Greek Myths will be a delight for LEGO tinkerers of all ages, a fun introduction to the tales for young readers, and an enchanting return to the stories for even the most devoted admirer of mythology.
