<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A fresh interpretation of the Minotaur myth told in alternating points of view between Ariadne, the devoted sister of the Minotaur and goddess-in-training, and Theseus, who has been sent to be killed by the Minotaur--or to kill him. A dramatic reimagining of the Minotaur myth, now available in paperback.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"This retelling of the myth of the Minotaur is deft, dark, and enthralling." -<i>School Library Journal<br></i> <br>Fifteen-year-old Ariadne of Krete is the daughter of the high priestess of the moon. Isolated and lonely, she finds companionship only with her beloved handicapped brother, Asterion, who is held captive below the palace for his own safety. When a ship arrives from Athens, Ariadne meets Theseus, the handsome son of the king. Ariadne is drawn to him, and they form a friendship. But Theseus is doomed to die as an offering to the Minotaur, the monster beneath the palace--unless he can kill the beast first. That monster? Ariadne's brother. A wonderfully rich coming-of-age story.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Ariadne weaves a new tale in a historically rich reworking of Theseus and the Minotaur... A world and story both excitingly alien and pleasingly familiar.--<b><i>Kirkus Reviews, starred review</i></b> <p>Fans of historical fiction and Greek myths should be pleased.--<i>Booklist</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Tracy Barrett</b> teaches Italian language and civilization at Vanderbilt University.
