Recommended Reading

A forum seems a good place to list various recommended reading for M&M. I'll start with an extraordinary fantasy novel I've read a few weeks ago... but which (unless I'm mistaken) is sadly not available in English :


Señores del Olimpo by the well-known Spanish fantasy writer Javier Negrete (I've read it in French, as Seigneurs de l'Olympe.

It is a delightful novel, based on a clever reconstruction of various episodes of Greek mythology, with Zeus and other Olympians as the main protagonists - with a perfect dosage of humor, epic suspense and mythological reference (with a very well-thought twists here and there). Negrete's portrayals of Zeus, Athena and Hephaestus are simply excellent (it also has a big, , muscular, vain and stupid Ares) - and very M&M-compatible. A must-read for all you Spanish or French speaking Minotaurians !
