That story about Perseus whacking off the head of the horrible snaky-haired Gorgon, Medusa? Oh, please. He got turned into a hunk of stinky cheese- gorgon-zola, of course!

A different perspective on popular myths which really rings,
By AnAvid Reader (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Myth-O-Mania: Say Cheese, Medusa! - Book #3 (Paperback)
Kate McMullan has created an excellent twist on traditional myth telling. I bought these books for my older two children (ages 9 & 7) and found them not only funny, but extremely eye opening and appropriate for adults as well. They should really be read in tandem with Bullfinch's anthologies in any mythology class, as it offers a view from the "other" side, which is rarely, if ever, explored. In this "episode" a beautiful and very kind, minor moon goddess is transformed into the legendary "turn men into stone" gorgon by a very jealous and self important , major goddess. It is a story of how understanding and being compassionate to others can overcome even the seemingly worse circumstances and reveal the true beauty beneath.

This review is from: Myth-O-Mania: Say Cheese, Medusa! - Book #3 (Paperback)
This is the third in a series?! I thought this was the only one! Well never mind. I loved this book, and although I normally don't like medusa, but i love greek mythology, so i tried it and loved it. Hades is actually the good guy in this one, and tries to help save medusa from being killed by the jelous... someone. Sorry i'm not a spoiler. all in all this was an awesome book.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great story!,

Great story! Hades once again tells the truth about Perseus and Medusa! A happier ending for Medusa in this tale!
