While the ending of the Golden Fleece myth, Medea's killing of her beloved children, is well known, her story and her reasoning are not. She can be understood through her deeds and words, though she may not be forgiven for her act. Jason, the hero of the Argo who wrested the Golden Fleece from a tyrant at the end of world, in this work is revealed as a man with flaws. Jason and Medea fully explores the ancient Greek tragedy, following the story line and philosophical trails. The gaps in the ancient telling are filled with imaginative invention without the aid of supernatural forces. Every baby boomer has seen the 60's movie Jason and the Argonauts with the animated harpies, skeleton warriors and bronze giant. Few know the details of the complete adventure. The telling of this tale relies upon the visualization prowess of the modern reader to examine the human condition. This tale has something more than mere adventure to hold the reader's attention. Great events propel the action. Men commit murder, steal, embark on paths of war, and whisper deceits. A woman acts both selflessly for love and sacrifices everything for it. Through language and dialogue, violence is revealed as monstrous and that love may be too. The voices of women articulate great sentiments and truths. Memory and loyalty are exposed as weak foundations for trust. At the beginning and then finally, the gods, the Fates and human responsibility all take center stage in Jason and Medea.

Victorious in the battle of his life, but set up by the king to be slaughtered with his Argonauts rather than be rewarded as promised, Jason was brave enough to attempt to steal the Golden Fleece against all odds. His people desperately needed its favor and wondrous bounty. But without Medea's help, Jason had no mere mortal hope of getting the Fleece and bringing it home. Medea would have to betray her family and her own people to save the golden giant among men who she came to love. Together they would face the wrath of her father and his army, and take on the gods. But, to what personal end? This Medea is unlike the Medea who most of us have come to know, the dark murderess of Euripides, of Classical Greece (500-400 BC), when the religion of the Sky God Zeus had taken over. Cargill's Jason & Medea is set in Mycenean Greece (about 1250 BC), a time when God was a She. Medea follows her goddess Hecate. This is not the typical male interpretation of history or myth. Based on the Argonautica or The Voyage of the Argo of Apollonius of Rhodes, Cargill's Medea isn't just a witch; rather she is a human being who loves and hurts just as we do. For her love, she has betrayed her family, has set out for an uncertain future in an unknown land, and must somehow reconcile her love for a man with her love of her homeland. From Medea's point of view and intelligence, the reader sees the world of ancient Greece, experiences her anguish, motivations, and aspirations. She is believable, as are the novel's other characters Jason & Medea showcases the combination of Linda Cargill's love of the classics and literature and her talent to fine-tune an action-packed spirited page-turner. Her lyrical languagecomes from her trained ear from reading the ancients. Her story telling craft has been honed in more than twenty young adult horror and suspense novels, one of which, The Surfer, has sold more than 200,000 copies worldwide. To Follow The Goddess, and adult novel about the Trojan War from the point of view of Helen, was Linda's first historical novel. Linda is a member of Mystery Writers of America. She lives in Tucson, Arizona with her family, which includes three cats.

THE ACCLAIMED TRANSLATION BY ROBIN ROBERTSON (FORWARD PRIZE, MAN BOOKER PRIZE SHORTLIST 2018) Euripides' Medea, the brutally powerful ancient Greek tragedy that reverberates down the centuries, has been brought to fresh and urgent life by one of our best modern poets. Medea has been betrayed. Her husband Jason has left her for a younger woman. He has forgotten all the promises he made and is even prepared to abandon their two sons. But Medea is not a woman to accept such disrespect passively. Strong-willed and fiercely intelligent, she turns her formidable energies to working out the greatest, and most horrifying, revenge possible... Suitable for the general reader as well as for students and performers. 'In Robertson's lucid, free-running verse, Medea's power is released into the world, fresh and appalling, in words that seem spoken for the first time' Anne Enright 'This version of Medea is vivid, strong, readable and brings triumphantly into modern focus the tragic sensibility of the ancient Greeks' John Banville 'Robertson's achievement is to make the dialogue flow without losing the unsettling poetry of the original' Financial Times

The archetypal story of Medea is a cautionary tale for our era. Jason and Medea’s marriage, favored by the gods, represents an attempt at a union of opposites very far from each other. They represent the masculine and feminine principles, covering a wide range of psychological, sociological, and historical aspects. This synthesis fails. In the myth, as Euripides presents it, the failure is caused by Jason’s regression and submission to the exclusivity of the patriarchal principle — the Old King. Medea, who not only represents the feminine but also the forces of Nature and Transformation, is profoundly incompatible with this regression. She reacts! She destroys and creates havoc. This is what the unconscious does when it is not heard or denied. In the end Medea is saved by the gods, the divine principles or psychic laws that regulate the laws of Nature and Transformation in the psyche. They support her to the bitter end.

The voyage of Jason and the heroes aboard the Argo is one of the more famous Greek myths. Jason’s quest is to find the golden fleece and bring it back to his homeland. En route, the Argonauts—as he and his companions are called—have many frightening adventures as they travel far from home. With the help of the gods and of Medea, who has fallen in love with him, Jason meets the challenge. But when Jason and Medea marry and return to Greece, their life turns tragic. As readers follow the suspenseful tale of Jason and the Argonauts, they will glimpse a lively Greek culture—and in these characters, they may recognize a piece of themselves.
