Jones, Diana Wynne
Genres: Fiction
It is possible to count seven of them only out of the corner of your eye. In Ancient Greece, The Pleiades seemed to mingle freely with both mortals and gods, and at least three of them had a love affair with Zeus (Jupiter), chief of the gods of both Greece and Ancient Rome. Uncle Jolyon is JUPITER.
    The Pleiades are: MAIA, whose son by Jupiter is MERCURY (Mercer), the messenger of the gods ELECTRA, whose children by Jupiter are Harmonia (Harmony) and the man who built and founded the great c
...ity of Troy and became its first king ALCYONE, known to astronomers as Beta Tauri, who seems to have been too lofty to have a love affair with anyone TAYGETA, whose children by Jupiter became the Spartans CELAENO, one of the fainter stars, whose children by Jupiter became many of the other peoples of Ancient Greece ASTEROPE, very much fainter than her sister stars MEROPE, who married SISYPHUS, a mortal king in Ancient Greece. Sisyphus was later punished by having to roll a stone eternally up a hill.MoreLess
