Perseus sets off on an adventure to kill Gorgon Medusa. It is not easy to fight a monster like Gorgon Medusa.

It was an exciting read, with lots of true things in it it expands the human mind in a playful way.

This is a great book. Perseus is good because he rescues is mother from the king. He is brave and clever.

It is exiting and is a good book. Medusa turned people to stone. In the end her gets cut of because of a bet and Perseus can use the head to anyone that annoyed him or is evel.
