Athena's Child

Very much a retelling of the story of Medusa in today’s language. It was an easy read and I felt like I learned some new things and got more of an insight so that was cool. You get some perspective of Perseus as well to show the struggle they both had.

Enjoyable easy read - doesn't go into too much depth and I felt it jumped timelines abruptly, but regardless it was worth a read

Daughter. Sister. Priestess. Protector. Son. Brother. Demi-God. Hero. Monsters. Gifted and burdened with beauty far beyond that of mere mortals, Medusa seeks sanctuary with the Goddess Athena. But when the lustful gaze of mighty Poseidon falls upon her, even the Temple of Athena cannot protect her. Young Perseus embarks on a seemingly impossible quest. Equipped with only bravado and determination, his only chance of success lays in the hands of his immortal siblings. Medusa and Perseus soon become pawns of spiteful and selfish gods. Faced with the repercussions of Athena's wrath Medusa has no choice but to flee and hide. But can she do so without becoming the monster they say she is? History tells of conquering heroes. Tales distorted by time. Medusa's truth has long been lost. Until now. Now it is time to hear her truth. Revel in this powerful retelling of one of mythologies greatest tales today.

A Spellbinding Retelling of One of Greek Mythology's Most Import Tales

I think this would’ve benefited by being a little more fleshed out. I still enjoyed it, but I wish we got a little more in-depth with the characters and plot. It’s still a decent read if you’re a fan of Greek mythology retellings.
