I'm debating between 3 stars and 4 stars. This story is a little outside my comfort zone - so 3 stars I liked it. As far as quality of the story, the flow of the tale, and the characters go...4 stars. One is personal and the other is useful so I'm going to go with useful. 
 heather Lyons takes Greek mythology and the story of Medusa and twists it into something pretty and very interesting. It's definitely a Medusa tale you've NEVER heard before. This Medusa has a conscience and wishes nothing more than to avoid turning people into stone. 
 A fast-paced, well-written, tale with awesome characters and a persevering romance that will draw you in and keep you hooked. Greek "tragedy" is just the beginning.
