(2) YA The mythical Greek heroine Atalanta's first-person narrative incorporates the legends about her, including the best-known story, in which she agrees to marry any man who can outrun her, while those who fail must die. In an engrossing story, Spinner draws a picture of a brave and earnest teenage girl who is forced by circumstances--otherwise known as the manipulations of the capricious gods--to make difficult choices.
