Join Jason aboard the Argo as he quests fort he Golden Fleece. See Atalanta- who raised by bears- outrun any man before being tricked with golden apples. Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the minster Chimera.
