This was a spectacular and spell binding rendition of Medusa. Ayana weaves a tale of a curious child born to power hungry parents who are attention starved of the Gods. Caught between escape amd finding her own experiences to shape her destiny, Medusa evolves from novice to expert while still struggling with whether she wants to be maid or monster.
The descriptions of Acropolis and the islands resonated a lot with me, as did Meddy's awe of God's before releasing that in power lies truth. The angst and stifled Meedys journey was an absolute pleasure to read, especially for fans of Circe. Thank yous to Random House and Natgalley for the ARC! Ayana Gray has become a new must read on the auto buy authors list for Greek retellings! Brava!!
