    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    'Deary's storytelling is simple, historically accurate and compelling.' - The i newspaper on The Silver Hand

    From the author of the blockbuster Horrible Histories series, which is now a TV show and movie, and has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide.

    Horrible Histories author Terry Deary presents a hilarious collection of Greek tales based on thrilling true stories - four books in one! Perfect for history fans (and those who don't know they're history fans yet) aged 7+.

    The Lion's Slave The great inventor Archimedes has just one problem - his clumsy servant, Lydia. But when the Romans besiege Syracuse, and the Greeks turn to Archimedes for help, it is she who comes up with the answers.
    The Tortoise and the Dare Elena's freedom is at stake. She needs all her cunning to make sure her brother wins a race in the Olympic stadium. But will he?
    The Boy Who Cried Horse When a stranger announces that the Greeks have departed Troy, leaving a special gift of a wooden horse, young Acheron is suspicious. He races to tell Prince Paris about the Greek plot, but will anyone at the palace believe him?
    The Town Mouse and the Spartan House Darius has been orphaned by the plague in Athens and joins the Spartan army. Then his uncle, the commander, falls sick. Can Darius find a cure?

    Terry Deary's Terrible True Tales: Greeks explores the world of ancient Greece through the eyes of children who could have lived at the time. Packed with fun illustrations by Helen Flook, these stories feature real people and take place in some of the most recognisable ancient Greek settings. This new edition features notes for the reader to help extend learning and exploration of the historical period.
