Poetic, whimsical and utterly engrossing.

Medusa is captivating, incredible and one of the best Greek mythology retellings in existence.

I can't recommend this highly enough.

Out of all mythological creatures Medusa has always been my favourite. Turning people to stone with just one look, seems like a nice feature to have. If only it came with an on/off switch!
