Title: 2.5 stars.
Product review: Athena is the daughter of a king, his only child. However, as a girl, she can not hope to inherit, though her mother insists that she should. Her father's plan is for Athena to marry his brother Poseidon, an arrogant man of few morals. Yet, it is a commoner who Athena loves. Moreover, she knows she can be a better queen than her uncle can be king. In a series of adventures that strips the magic from Greek myths, rendering them in mortal terms, Athena comes into her own, preparing her to face the final challenge, where she will prove she is the better of the two.** Though this is a pleasant enough story, the characters are somewhat hard to relate to. The myths are better with the magical element intact, simply put. However, Athena's Tale is fairly interesting. If Morgan Llewlyn's novels are daunting yet intrigue you, this is a lightweight choice for you. **Amanda Killgore
