I enjoyed this one more than I have with some of the other Greek mythology retellings and historical fiction novels I've picked through the beginning of this year.

I think it might be down to the main character Atalanta having a personality in a way I didn't feel others previously had. But I'm also less familiar with the story of Jason and the Argonauts, therefore for me it's just a story as I'm not comparing it with other retellings of it.
