Intriguing book--Yonge blends the legend of Hercules into her 19C novel. Yonge is the author that Jo Marsh sobs over in the attic while eating apples. I never knew who this author was until this year, and I am so glad I discovered her. This is not her best novel, that one is The Heir of Redclyffe, so loved by Jo. This novel has too many similarities to the Heir of Redclyffe to satisfy me completely, but worth reading at least once if you like Yonge or 19C women's fiction. I also really like Yonge's Clever Woman of the Family.
