Invited to judge a local beauty pageant, Hercules and his trusted companion Iolaus little suspect that they are fodder for the Klothon, a vicious serpent that feeds on the unwitting winners of the pageant.
As Hercules' suspicions grow, he is forced to call upon his powerful relatives—the gods of Olympus—to help him release the village from the Klothon's evil grip.
Based on the hit television series created by Christian Williams, Serpent's Shadow continues the legendary journeys of Hercules—a hero who possesses a strength the world has never seen . . . a strength surpassed only by the power of his heart.
