I loved the idea of showing the innocence and tragedy behind Medusa rather than the villainous nature that was forced upon her by angry gods.

I’m not a major fan of modern writing styles with greek retellings, while seemingly being based in a non-modern world. Also not the biggest fan of the ending. A nice read.
