No language and no steamy scenes.* "A far superior retelling than Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series. This version of the Minotaur myth is more complex, compelling, and moving." -Amazon Reviewer "One action-packed, nail-biting, heart-pounding, pulse-racing, page-turning delight that keeps you on your toes and eyes glued to the pages!" -Amazon reviewer "Drama, suspense and danger run rampant as tension spirals with every terror-filled step the characters take." -Goodreads reviewer "Beautifully written and more than imaginative.
