Bull by David Elliott

What we have here is a bawdy, but humorous, sort of re-telling of the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. It is told from the multiple POVs of the many characters in verse. Each character has their own unique form of verse to match their unique part in the story. Poseidon the delightfully meddlesome God of the Sea is the clear winner here. He is the catalyst for the turn of events that shape this story while also providing his devilish commentary as things unravel. I'm not generally a fan of the non-traditional narrative, but this was a quick and amusing read. If you're a fan of Greek mythology and you're looking for a quick bite of snark, I would recommend it. As Poseidon says...

But it doesn't take
Much to bring you
Mortals to your knees.
Yeah, you're hard to respect
But easy to please.
