Diophon the Great Darren Strickland

This story is set in ancient Greece where a young Athenian Olympic athlete, Diophon, loses the Olympic Games because he is poisoned before the last event by an evil and greedy council member of Athens, Tyrax, on a bet against his own city. Now Diophon must not only redeem himself, but save the city from the evil corruption of Tyrax. To do so, he must get the help of Alexander the Great and even the gods themselves in this wild and zany adventure.
