A Wonderful Read

I loved how this book put Medea into a new light. This book shows how I always imagined Jason- a self-absorbed jerk. one line that he says, it just took my breath away with how harsh it was. A really good read, with lively characters. Very sad, but beautiful.

bringing the classics in touch with reality

i read this book when i was very young, but i remember it as if it were yesterday. it was what started getting me hooked on the study of mythology.this book brought the distant and ancient classics to light and showed me the human side to these epic heroes. instead of the monster myths make medea out to be, i felt sympathy for her after reading this book.i highly recommed it to anyone of any age. if you can't find it through and out of print book search, find it at a library. i'm serious. you won't be disappointed.
