This started out well, with delightful descriptions of life in Arcadia and offering a refreshing, well-researched take on Greek myths. But the author seemed a little stymied by the Argonauts not actually doing much to win the Golden Fleece, and so the story got a little lost and the narrative structure rather linear. Atalanta herself went through the unusual character arc of becoming less sympathetic as the story went on. But these retellings of myth are illuminating and I already have more ready to read.
