And we got to study a bunch of myths and just write about them. And it was really interesting. But the first book is called The Voyages of Odysseus. So it's the story of the Odyssey. I'm not sure how they condensed the entire Odyssey in this tiny, thin book form, but who knows? I haven't read it yet. So we'll see. And the second one is Cecius and the Minotaur, which is the myth that has the labyrinth in it
I just feel like that condenses everything there is to feel about Greek mythology into one story, just the ridiculousness and the incredible stretches, like through time and space and physical realm of possibility. And she has a child with a beast, and then she has a string in the labyrinth, combines the magic into, like, sort of awful beastly nature of the myth. I don't know. I feel like it's just a perfect mess, but yeah, thanks for sharing
