Odysseus in the Serpent Maze

(3) 4-6 Young Heroes series. Thirteen-year-old Odysseus is brash and wily, and his zest for adventure helps him rescue his young comrades from danger after he, Mentor, Penelope, and Helen are captured by pirates, stranded at sea, and then thrown into the Labyrinth to be killed by a many-headed serpent. The fast-paced, action-packed novel is a good introduction to these characters from Homer's classic poem.
