 The oldest heroic epic in Greek mythology, the tale of Jason and his crew of Argonauts sets the pattern for all the hero myths that follow. Jason & the Golden Fleece is the tale of an epic voyage filled with dangers and pitfalls that serve as a test of Jason's bravery, intelligence and physical strength. Join Jason on his ship, the Argo, as he embarks on an impossible quest to retrieve the magical skin of a golden ram and in the process defeats the evil harpies, matches wits with the cunning King Aeetes and is befriended by the mysterious Medea.
