Alex isn't sure that Zeus, the Greek god, is the best person to ask for help but before he can stop him, Charlie has built a temple (from a piece of crumpled paper) to summon Zeus.The problem is, the hot-headed god has now taken over the boys' loos and wants to smite Eric with a thunderbolt. But that's against the school rules, so how exactly will Zeus teach the bully a lesson?Don't worry...Zeus will sort it out!Another hilarious story from the author of ZEUS ON THE LOOSE and ZEUS TO THE RESCUE.

Charlie and Alex have a problem in the big, mean shape of Eric Lees, who loves flushing his victim’s head down the nearest available toilet. When Zeus is summoned and told about the bratty bully, he realizes that the name Eric Lees sounds a lot like the famous Hercules, and wouldn’t it be fun revenge to make him enact the legendary Labours, substituting dragons for equally fierce dinner ladies and Cerberus for the school cat. Can Zeus succeed in sorting Eric out?
