In Ariadne’s palace, a specially designed dancing floor is her solace. Into this world comes Ariadne, beautiful princess of Crete and granddaughter of Helios, the sun god. The Book: From horror to the exotic, the court of Minos, king of Crete, is a world of mystical beasts, human sacrifice and incestuous Greek gods who meddle wilfully in the lives of men. As an English teacher she shared her love of Greek mythology and creative writing with her students. The Author: Jennifer Saint read Classical Studies at King’s College, London.
