Reach for this book when your teenager feels like an outsider or is struggling with a reputation they did not choose. This visceral reimagining of the Minotaur myth speaks directly to the experience of being labeled a monster by those who are supposed to protect you. It explores the heavy burdens of shame, paternal rejection, and the search for identity in a world that only sees your flaws. Written in sharp, modern verse, the story breathes new life into Poseidon, Minos, and Asterion. While it deals with mature themes of lust, betrayal, and violence, it provides a powerful mirror for teens navigating their own complex family dynamics and the desire to be seen as more than their worst impulses. It is an ideal pick for older teens who appreciate gritty, rhythmic storytelling and aren't afraid of a darker, more honest look at classic legends.
