The Fates

'A really thrilling and totally original story of Greek mythology that I can't recommend highly enough' JENNIFER SAINT, author of Ariadne and Atalanta

'Lyrical, imaginative, visceral, urgent, moving, adventurous . . . brings The Fates startlingly back to life' SEAN LUSK, author of The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesley

'Passionate, angry, empowering and beautiful' LOUISE BEECH, author of Nothing Else

Before Gods and mortals, there were The Fates . . .

You've heard the legends: three sisters born out of Nyx's darkness, destined to weave the lives, and deaths, of humankind for eternity.

But immortality is a heavy burden, and Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos are captivated by the gloriously human lives of the mortals below, especially those of the great warrior Atalanta and her ill-fated lover, Meleager.

However, being a Goddess of Fate doesn't make you a master of it. Will these three sisters find a way to free the couple, and themselves, from their destinies? Or will they be bound by Fate forever?
