A masterpiece of Greek mythology retelling. Lauren J.A. Bear's 'Medusa's Sisters' delves deep into the lives of Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale, shedding light on their forgotten stories with stunning prose. Through these deeply flawed yet compelling characters, Bear navigates themes of trauma, resilience, and the bonds of sisterhood.
It was poetic. It was intelligent. You should read it, particularly if you loved Madeline Miller's 'Circe' as it's the first I have found that actually holds up to the comparison.
