Overview
The epic tale of Gilgamesh, the legendary god-king of Sumeria who discovered the secret of eternal life, has enflamed the imaginations of countless generations. The ancient Sumerian tale tells the story of a king who would be a god, by whatever means necessary. The original story says Gilgamesh was a young giant with enormous wealth, power and beauty--and a boundless arrogance that leads him to oppress his people. In this arrogance, Gilgamesh faces mortality in the death of a friend and ally whom he once feared, and the young king's suffering propels him on an action-packed and paced quest for immortality.
