Summary

Sorceress, Princess of Colchis, Securer of the Golden Fleece.

Medea - her very name is a byword for infamy. Legend has it that she murdered her own children for revenge.

But love in Ancient Greece was often a dangerous game; and legends are not always what they seem.

Medea, devoted wife of Jason, was also a loving mother, a loyal friend of Herakles and a brave adventurer with the Argonauts.

A woman both betrayer and betrayed, the real story of Medea is strange, sensual and heroic.

Excellent

I loved this version of Medea's story, which is rarely told sympathetically. Both narrators were very good, but I particularly loved the hypnotic quality of Lucy Scott's voice. Perfect for Medea.
