How Maui Defied the Goddess of Death
Author(s): Peter Gossage
How Maui defied the Goddess of Death is the story of how Maui wonders what it would be like to live forever. He enters the Goddess of Death and discovers stars, heavens and the gods. Missing his people, he is sent home by the highest god, Rehua, who gives him the special gift of being able to transform himself.
Peter Gossage's Maui series is well-known and loved. The six titles in the series have been repackaged and redesigned for a new generation of readers, without losing the integrity of the initial artwork. The books follow Maui's birth, his abandonment by his mother and his search for her, his search for his father and discovery and eventual owners of his grandfather's magic jawbone, and his fishing up of Te Ika a Maui (the North Island).
