Title: Demystifies the myth
Review: Even if you don't know the story of Oedipus in ancient Greek mythology, this take on "how it may have unfolded" rewards greatly. Jocasta, queen of Thebes is given a human side. Jocasta and her brother Creon are embroiled in political intrigue. She wants both love and the best for Thebes, struggling with the conflict the two bring. The authors take the Greek myth and demystify it. Tension and suspense drive the plot. The period detail is impressive. What appears to be a heavy subject is remarkably illuminating and accessible.There will be two sequels highlighting other figures from ancient Greece.Reviewed by Holly Weiss, author of Crestmont
