3.5

This book will make you look differently at the myth of Perseus and Medusa. Chapters in the book jump around from different perspectives: Athene, Medusa, Andromeda, Hera, etc. I wish the book focused more on Medusa. I thought the depictions of the gods being so petty and vengeful was realistic.
