Den grekiska mytologin är full av berättelser om gudar och gudinnor, hjältar och krig, död och kärlek - och smarta och modiga flickor. I den här samlingen återberättas några av historierna ur kvinnornas och flickornas perspektiv. Vi får läsa om nio hjältinnor och deras spännande livsöden. Här finns bland andra häxan Kirke som kunde laga magiska drycker av växter och örter, snabbfotade Atalanta som sprang fortare än alla män, den visa gudinnan Athena och den modiga Psyche som utsatte sig för faror och utmaningar för att få vara med sin älskade Eros.
Berättelserna är alla fulla av dramatik och äventyr och de fina och fartfyllda illustrationerna levandegör dessa smarta och modiga flickor för en ny generation läsare.
