A 2017 Indie B.R.A.G. Medallion Award HonoreeIt's true, I am Mistress of the Hunt, goddess of the wilderness. But there's more to my story that remains untold. For centuries, I've kept my truth hidden. But now, I break the silence. Now, I share my account as men have never told it. I am Artemis, and these are my secrets.In Ancient Greece, the goddess Artemis was venerated as a maiden huntress, swift with her bow and arrows, and eternally chaste. But there is more to her story. The truth is, Artemis chose a vastly different destiny than the one her father, Zeus, envisioned for her. Namely, she hadn't merely pined after the huntsman, Orion, but had secretly partaken in a forbidden romance with him.In this award-winning novel from prolific fantasy writer, C.K. Brooke, Artemis's classic myths are retold as never before, in her own voice, as the young goddess sets the record straight and reveals the true account of her immortal life - and love.This 55,000-word standalone retelling contains Greek mythology, romance, and some upper-young adult themes. Books in the Mythic Maidens series can be read alone or in any order.
