This is a well written novel, containing the first 2 books of the series. It was well out of my norm of reading, but I enjoyed the story very much. Cynthia takes readers into a world filled with both well-known and new myths. Costa is a very likable hero and one I think young adult readers would relate to. His story is one of self-acceptance and growth. It surprised me that this story contained some romance. The ending was well done.
