Long ago, when gods and heroes walked the earth in triumph and tragedy, true love and epic deeds were set among the stars...In the city of ancient Corinth, Bellerophon grew up in the corridors of the palace, haunted by his father's gruesome death, and distrusted and ignored by the rest of his own family.He now spends his life in the shadows of society, and that is how he prefers it. However, the Gods of Olympus have something more in mind for him.After a violent incident in the mountains, Bellerophon is banished from his home for all time. His path leads him to the court of an aged king in Tiryns where he is welcomed at first, but due to the spiteful queen, he is wrongly accused of another crime in a world that seems endlessly cruel.Dejected and uncaring of what happens to him and his hateful life, Bellerophon is sent across the sea to the court of King Iobates of Lykia. At the urging of his seer, the king welcomes Bellerophon as an honoured guest in his home, until he discovers the reason for his arrival.Seeking a way to be rid of Bellerophon, without violating the sacred laws of Zeus, King Iobates commands that he complete three impossible tasks to prove his innocence or bring about his death.With the world set against him, Bellerophon welcomes his imminent end. That is, until he meets the king's daughter, Philonoe, the only person who has ever believed in him, and whose father has kept a dark secret from for many years.With the Gods and Lykia's princess on his side, can Bellerophon prove his innocence and help save Lykia and its people? Will he finally accept the fate that the Gods have pressed upon him? Or will he succumb to the despair and hopelessness that have dogged him all of his life?Only by facing his deepest fears and a creature more terrible than any other of the Gods' creation can Bellerophon truly succeed and become the hero he is meant to be...The Reluctant Hero is an epic retelling of the story of Bellerophon and the Chimera from Greek mythology.
