The Arms of Hercules 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

From Publishers Weekly Mutant livestock such as mastodroms and cameloids roam a land very like Greece, where Saberhagen places a mild retelling (with obligatory debunking from the hero's viewpoint) of the Hercules legends. Our hero here has admittedly superhuman strengthAbeing an acknowledged son of ZeusAbut is humble about his prowess, leadership skills and even appearance. His famous first task, the killing of the Nemean lion, occurs in the course of a normal chore assigned to troublesome youths: guarding remote herds. Other tasks he stumbles into by even greater chance, while more are assigned by Hermes, the messenger of the gods. But Hercules regards the codified list of his 12 Labors as ranging from misinterpretation to complete fabrication by his fans. Saberhagen, the veteran author of some three dozen novels, including a series featuring Count Dracula and the SF Berserker books, sticks fairly close to familiar territory, offering a classical fantasy with centaurs and rare but convincing appearances by the gods. He drops a few unsatisfying hints that magic and divinity are based on an unexplained technology (one word, "odylic," describing this mysterious technology, dates from 1850: briefly, this seems to be a clue, but goes nowhere). This tale will satisfy those who like hero stories, but the book, third in a series (The Face of Apollo; Ariadne's Web), lacks the frisson possible to SF with plausible explanations, as well as the power of some other retellings. (Dec.) Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Booklist The third of the Books of the Gods continues Saberhagen's exploration of classical mythology as a springboard for fantasy. In it, Hercules is an experiment of Zeus'--a type of mortal hero who can survive to champion the gods in their battle with the Titans. From his mid-teens, Hercules proves that Zeus knew what he was doing. Hercules lacks heroic stature, but he has street smarts, along with magical strength and magical invulnerability. He progresses through his various labors and other adventures over the years, with Saberhagen sometimes interestingly varying some of them, such as Hercules' aborted attempt to accompany the Argonauts. As the book proceeds to its climax, Apollo and Theseus arrive from previous volumes of Saberhagen's series. Finally, there is the long-anticipated battle with the Titans.
