After pulling a magical thunderbolt from a stone, ten-year-old Zeus goes on the adventure of a lifetime in this thrilling start to a brand-new series!,The terrible Titansâ€”merciless giants who enjoy snacking on humansâ€”have dominated the earth and put the world into chaos. But their rule is about to be put to the test as a group of young Olympians discover their powers and prepare to righteously rule the universe...., Â Â Â Â  Ten-year-old Zeus is mystified (and super-annoyed) by the fact that he keeps getting hit by lightening. Every. Single. Year. He also longs for adventure, as he has never been far from the cave where he grew up. Â Â Â Â  Zeus gets his wishâ€”and a lot more than he bargained forâ€”when he is kidnapped by dangerous, giant Titans! In self-defense, Zeus grabs the first thing he seesâ€”an actual thunderbolt he pulls from a stone that is covered in mysterious markings. Zeus is the only one who can decipher the markings, and sets off on a quest to rescue his fellow Olympians from the evil Cronus. Armed with his trusty thunderbolt (named Bolt, of course), Zeus is on an adventure of a lifetimeâ€”and a journey to fulfill his destiny as King of the Gods.
