" While a good read, The Bull from the Sea ('62) is not quite as exciting as the story of Theseus' youth in The King Must Die ('58). Like its predecessor, it rationalizes ancient Greek myths, many of which were far more interlinked than most moderns recognize. Thus, this novel covers both legends of the Amazons as well as the story of Hippolytus and Phaedra (handled, famously, by Euripides). "
