The Medusa Stone

The mix of history and adventure really drew me in, but I'm curious whether the author based the artifact on real legends or invented it for the story.

The tension dipped a bit during those scenes for me, but it might have been a deliberate choice to build suspense before the action picks up again.

The story moves quickly, but I appreciated the moments that gave insight into the characters’ motivations. Wondering how the author approached this balance.
