I have been very much in the mood for good Greek Myth retellings and this turned out to be a really good one. It doesn't quite follow the interpretation of the Medusa myth that I prefer, but in spite of that I really loved it. I appreciate the message of the story. I'm also surprised to find that I also appreciate the author giving us both the perspective of Medusa and that of Perseus. It added an unexpected emotional impact for me as a reader. Definitely one I would recommend.
