About this item
Medea, Princess of Colchis, is a priestess of Hecate, Three Named, Lady of Phantoms. She is the custodian of the wood in which the Golden Fleece is hung. She alone can tame the giant serpent which guards the grove. And then Jason and his Argonauts come along, and she falls catastrophically in love. She helps him steal the Golden Fleece and sails with him to claim his throne. And that's when things go wrong ... and she must attempt to reclaim her humanity through abandonment, murder, grief and heavy seas.
