Monkey King and the World of Myths: The Monster and the Maze
A colourful, hilarious and action-packed graphic novel about the mischievous Monkey King, who must battle the man-eating Minotaur in Greece to become a god - with the help of his soon-to-be-potty-trained three-headed dog! Perfect for fans of anime, Jamie Smart and Louie Stowell's Loki.
Monkey King and the World of Myths: The Monster and the Maze by Maple Lam introduces Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, who is the mightiest of all beasts. The problem is, he's tired of being feared and hated and is determined to become a god instead.
As luck would have it, an ancient evil has returned and is secretly turning everyone into monsters, and the gods are in need of a good warrior. They strike a deal with the Monkey King: travel the world and defeat the monsters, and they'll make him a god.
Soon, the Monkey King is off to Greece, where he is tasked with pet-sittingβand potty-trainingβa three-headed dog. Oh, and then there's the whole 'defeat a man-eating Minotaur' mission too...
A colourful graphic novel, filled with mischief, a few pee mishaps, and lots of action.
