Synopsis
The Third book in the enchanting Greek Goddess series
Passionate, inspiring, and full of adventure, this is Athena's tale.
In a time when a girl's place is at home, Athena has been raised wild and free, and resents the limits she's facing. Her blossoming womanhood makes it difficult to indulge her tomboyish ways and she can't understand why women allow men to control their lives. If Athena married anyone, it would be Amoni, the boy from the forge, whose kiss has made her finally feel what it's really like to be a woman.

January 09, 2006: 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.
