Whatโs your myth? Penelope Weaver has spent her whole life preparing to attend Anaximanderโs Academy, where students learn how to bring to life the stories of Greek mythology as well as discover the Greek god whose principles they most embody. Penelope knows sheโs an Athenaโall smart, practical, and rule-following girls who take part in stories that matter are Athenas. But when Penelope and her twin brother Paris arrive at Anaximanderโs, it appears fate has other plans. Penelope isnโt placed with Athena but with students who are anything but practical and who prefer parties to rules. And thatโs just the beginning. Sheโs given the worldโs worst muse, her assigned tasks feel impossible, and the magic of Anaximanderโs is overwhelming. Not to mention, there are two very different boys making her new life even more confusing. But as things go from bad to dangerously worse, one thing becomes clear: in a world where everything is fated to happen a certain way, some stories need to be rewritten. As the world around her shifts and cracks, Penelope is asked to forget everything she thought she knew to help create a better storyโฆeven if that changes every plan and breaks every rule.
