(4) 4-6 Young Heroes series. A youthful Jason of the Argonauts is here imagined to embark on a quest to retrieve a deadly poison, the Gorgon's blood, from a murderous band of centaurs. He must overcome monsters and natural disasters while learning leadership of his band of boys (and one girl). The characterization is somewhat formulaic, but the nonstop action-adventure will attract readers.
