A fantasy short story for children and maybe for adults by the well-traveled and imaginative local author. The monuments and the natural world of almost all the Cyclades islands come to life in these pages and take on a mythical dimension. Some of the fascinating narratives include the original birth of Poseidon, Hades and Zeus in the mountains of Naxos, the mythical Atlantis (Santorini, that is) and the dragon-volcano that wiped it out, the treasure of King Minos, the flying Minotaur, the magic herb "Antrakla" and how Paros fishermen seized it, the mishap of the pirate Barbarossa and the adventures of dreamy Little Redbeard in the Aegean.
