"Born from the thigh of Zeus and a mortal mother, Dionysos is, just maybe, the first of a new type of God. His story is told by the first Olympian herself, Hestia, Goddess of the hearth and home. From her seat in the center of Olympus, Hestia brings the Olympians saga to a close with the story of Dionysos's discovery of wine, battles with madness and conquering of death itself, and, finally, his ascent to Olympus and Godhood"-- cover page 4.
