What the Hades? Tim's used to solo time-travel but now there's a 'friend' along for the ride.

I'll get you for this, Cinderella!

When things go south after some bird spotting, Tim has to avoid being burnt alive, eaten alive or
dead alive. But the Underworld is full of dangers, and the local music isn't exactly lifting his spirits.

Hopeless Heroes is a fun-filled series about Greek mythology, adventure and what it means to be a hero. Readers aged 7+ will love diving into the world of Tim Baker and his (sort of) friend Hercules. Great for fans of Who Let The Gods out and the Percy Jackson series. Online activity packs can be found at
