DAUGHTER OF SPARTA
In this thrilling reimagining of ancient Greek mythology, a headstrong girl does whatever it takes to rise up and become the most powerful fighter her people have ever seen.
Seventeen-year-old Daphne has spent her entire life honing her body into a weapon and her heart and mind into stone, in order to be accepted by the unyielding people of ancient Sparta. But unrest throughout ancient Greece - and the goddess Artemis holding Daphne's brother for ransom - upends her carefully laid plans.
In return for her brother's life, Daphne must find and return nine mysterious items stolen from Mount Olympus before the gods' power wanes and the mortal world is thrown into chaos. Her journey leads her into battle with foes from ancient Greek myths, a growing (and dangerous) attraction to her guide, the enigmatic and flirtatious god Apollo, who has a secret agenda of his own, and into the devious games of the gods themselves.
Claire M. Andrews received her B.A. in Social Sciences from University of Alaska Southeast. She was raised in both Alaska and Scotland, but currently lives in Vermont; when not writing, she can usually be found outside swimming, skiing or hiking across the state's famous green mountains. Driven by her fascination with Greek history and mythology, she has sought to breathe new life to the forgotten and often underappreciated Greek myths.
