About this book

Mary Renault’s sequel to The King Must Die follows Theseus after his return from Crete. His responsibilities as king of Athens compete with the pull of adventure and his love for Hippolyta, as Renault reimagines Greek myth through the politics, loyalties and rivalries of the ancient world.
