Περιγραφή

Is Medusa an evil monster who turns people into stone just by looking at them, or was this tale created by victor and not the victim? She is, after all, just a mortal girl, albeit the daughter of primordial gods and sister to the immortal Gorgons. But her short life changes when, one fateful day, she goes to visit the new temple of Athena. From a sheltered upbringing to conversing with a sly goddess and evil god, Medusa discovers the world is not such a rosy place…

GREAT WOMEN OF GREEK MYTHOLOGY is a series of short books for young and old introducing readers to the ancient world through its heroines.
Whether simplified adaptations of classic tragedies by Euripides, Aeschylus and Sophocles or original works based on the surviving sources, these books
aim to bring readers on a journey filled with excitement, drama, death and love, all while focusing on the women that have played such an important role in our history yet are still remembered as mere bystanders.

While each book can be read separately, and in any order, there is an underlying thread that ultimately connects all these characters and provides a wider view of what it was to be a woman in the ancient Greek world.
The Creators
Vittorio Mattioli and Mike French are authors, translators, and editors of texts and books. Cosmopolitans in the truest sense, they founded Read Panda Editing, a company based in Estonia. Vittorio, of Greek-Italian heritage, resides in Athens, while Mike—despite his surname—is British and currently lives in Brussels. They primarily offer their services in English, though communication is also possible in Italian, French, Greek, Icelandic, and Spanish. Their publishing initiative Great Women of Greek Mythology marks their first editorial venture in Greece.

The distinctive covers of the series are the work of the talented illustrator known as Little Miss Grumpy. A native Athenian, she once aspired to become an actress, but ultimately emerged as one of the most promising illustrators of her generation. She draws, sketches, and paints for books and newspapers, and creates objects imbued with character and personality.
