Medusa's Daughter A Graphic Novella

Fifteen-year-old Maia Vitikos is told she's gifted or cursed with abilities frighteningly similar to those of the snake-haired Gorgons from her supposed country of origin, Greece. Stolen from, or given away by, her parents (she's not sure), Maia is adopted by a sideshow huckster named Rictus Finch who enslaves her. Called "Medusa's Daughter" and thrown in with other "eerie people," she becomes the carnival's main attraction, drawing crowds as it travels from one small, Eastern European town to another. Beautifully illustrated,Medusa's Daughterblends dark fantasy, a rich narrative, and memorable characters in a compelling coming-of-age tale.Fuqua, Jonathon Scott is the author of 'Medusa's Daughter A Graphic Novella', published 2007 under ISBN 9781933368924 and ISBN 1933368926.
