Atalanta

Atalanta is a bold and reimagined tale of one of Greek mythology’s fiercest heroines—forgotten by history, but destined for greatness. Abandoned at birth for being a girl, Atalanta defies death and is raised in the wilderness by a bear and the goddess Artemis. She grows up swift, strong, and unbound by the expectations of men. But Artemis gives her a warning: marriage will be her downfall.

When the call of adventure comes, Atalanta joins the legendary Argonauts on their perilous quest for the Golden Fleece—the only woman among a crew of famed male heroes. With each trial, she proves she is not only their equal, but a force of her own. Yet when love enters her path, Atalanta must choose between the freedom she was promised and the pull of her own desires.

Rich with myth, courage, and feminine defiance, Jennifer Saint’s Atalanta brings a long-overlooked warrior to vivid life. It’s a story of strength and self-determination, of forging one’s fate in a world that insists otherwise.

Full of joy, passion, and adventure, Atalanta is the story of a woman who refuses to be contained. Jennifer Saint places Atalanta in the pantheon of the greatest heroes in Greek mythology, where she belongs.
