Perseus
Author: Geraldine McCaughrean
Perseus must kill the hideous, snake-haired Medusa - without being turned to stone. If the brave hero fails in quest, his mother will be forced to marry a less-than-noble king. A power struggle among the gods both hinders and helps him along the way, and Perseus even manages to find true love when he rescues the breathtakingly beautiful Princess Andromeda from the horrors of a bloodthirsty sea monster.
