  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

4.0

I really enjoyed this medusa retelling, especially how the story didn't try to redeem Perseus. I liked seeing the start of other important characters' stories (Athena's birth, her winning Athena etc). I also liked the focus on the Gorgon sisters love, it was really nice to see their relationships. It would have been cool to see Athena take the gorgona from Perseus, but I guess it's not his story, so I can see why it was omitted (unless it was in the story, and I just zoned out...)
