Resurrected from the dark depths of the labyrinth, this fresh, deliciously shocking, and darkly comedic novel-in-verse takes on the Theseus and Minotaur myth and shines a light on one of history's most infamous monsters. Garnering six starred reviews, this update of the timeless story of Theseus and the Minotaur has been called "beautifully clever," "a literary feast fit for the gods," 'powerful and engrossing,' 'irresistible, slick, and sharp,' 'a genre of its own,' and 'rude - crude, and it's a whole bunch of fun.'
