OLDER FICTION
Halam, Ann

Snakehead

(3) YA At the command of the gods, to avert civil war, and to save his love from being sacrificed, Perseus undertakes his quest to slay the Medusa. Perseus is a likable hero in this lively retelling reshaped to focus on family ties and statecraft. Contemporary language and details from mythology play well against each other.
