BOOK REVIEW: The Deep End of the Sea by Heather Lyons

The Deep End of the Sea by Heather Lyons




I received this book as part of a book subscription called Fandom Adventures which I signed up through CrateJoy. It's an awesome box to get monthly and this book was amazing.

What if everything you ever knew about Medusa (you know, the one with the snakes on her head) was wrong? This story leads you down a path of learning who Medusa was before she became a "monster", what her life was like while she was a "monster" and then what her life was like after she no longer was this "monster". It put such an interesting twist on the Greek Mythologies stories I'm sure you're used to. This book really gets down to the nitty gritty in how Medusa feels about life and of course it's not short of any awesome characters. Hermes, Hades, Persephone... Athena, Zeus... Death.. they are all touched on.

If you're into Greek Mythology and want a different take on Medusa and even all of the other Gods than I would recommend you read this book. I loved it! I wish there was a sequel.
