A tale woven from the threads of Greek mythology about a princess whose hands have been soaked in blood forever.

Medea always felt like a prisoner in her own land, so when a chance presents for freedom, she takes the leap of faith. Only to jump out of the frying pan & into the fire. The book follows her life & all that she endures in the journey of learning magic, love & survival.

I enjoyed the narration style in the audiobook version & though the story was quite long, it held my attention by presenting challenge after challenge in Medea's path. Her life felt unfulfilled even after attaining all she wanted, thus a majority portion of the book will make you feel sad, but there is some light at the end of the tunnel & that closure made this worth the read.

3.5/5 stars
