Theseus, the brave Prince of Athens, has performed many great feats, but his most daunting task is yet to come. The King of Crete demands that fourteen young Athenians must be fed to the Minotaur, a half-man, half-bull. Only Theseus can save them from the fearsome monster, who lives deep in the maze-like Labyrinth. Far from home and with all of Athens depending on him, Theseus must defeat the greatest threat Greece has ever known -- with only his bare hands as weapons.
