About the author
Jennifer Saint is a British novelist who studied classics and taught English before writing fiction full-time. Her novels select women from Greek myth whose lives are distributed across male-centered epics, tragedies, and later summaries, then give each a continuous point of view.
Ariadne begins with the Minotaur story, Elektra returns to the House of Atreus, Atalanta follows the only woman among the Argonauts, and Hera moves across the long divine reign of the queen of Olympus.
Where to start
Start with Atalanta for a first-person heroic adventure or Hera for a divine life spanning several mythic generations.
