As the daughter of Pasiphae, a powerful sorceress, and King Minos of Crete, she has grown up within palace walls, shadowed by the secrets of the Labyrinth and the terrible fate of the Minotaur. When her beloved brother Androgeus is lost to Athenian treachery, tensions between two great powers threaten to erupt into war. Ariadne is expected to uphold her father's thirst for vengeance, but her heart begins to pull her in a different direction. Through encounters with goddesses, and as a result of her own awakening resolve, she dares to imagine a world where the past does not dictate the future. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is not the story of a girl betrayed and abandoned. This is the story of a young woman who dares to act--who reaches for hope in a world ruled by fear. Through love, loss, and courageous defiance, Ariadne learns to turn the Labyrinth's twisted path into a way forward. Epic yet intimate, mythic yet urgently modern, this Greek tale reimagines the power of one voice to challenge a fate written in stone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.03oz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798896362081\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSophia Kouidou-Giles\u003c\/b\u003e is an award-winning author whose work spans memoir, historical fiction, myth retellings, poetry, and literary translation.
