Summary
Summary
This should be the story of Hercules: his twelve labors, his endless adventures… everyone’s favorite hero, right?
Well, it’s not.
This is the story of everyone else:
-
Alcmene: Herc’s mother (She has knives everywhere)
-
Hylas: Herc’s first friend (They were more than friends)
-
Megara: Herc’s wife (She’ll tell you about their marriage)
-
Eurystheus: Oversaw Herc’s labours (He never asked for the job)
His friends, his enemies, his wives, his children, his lovers, his rivals, his gods, his victim
It’s time to hear their stories.
Told with humour and heart, Herc gives voice to the silenced characters, in this feminist, queer (and sometimes shocking) retelling of classic Hercules myth, perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and Joanne M. Harris.

Author Bio: Phoenicia Rogerson
Phoenicia Rogerson is altogether mortal with a rather less checkered past than Hercules. After a decade of not being able to find his complete story on bookshelves, she decided to pull her socks up and write it herself. She’s had two short stories published in the UCL Publishers’ Prize. She lives and works in London. HERC is her first novel.
