From actor and writer Felicia Day, a sapphic graphic novel about the forgotten sister of Helen of Troy, for fans of Lore Olympus and Girl Goddess Queen.

Helen. Clytemnestra. Timandra. Three famous sisters and one shared curse - that each will betray their husband.

As the youngest sister, Philonoe is desperate not to follows in their footsteps. After pleading with the gods, Philonoe is sent on a quest by Aphrodite, to retrieve three impossible objects. She's expecting battle, but instead encounters women who have already lost everything to the gods. Every step of the way she's accompanied by Artemis, who doesn't understand exactly why she's so drawn to Philonoe's quest. Will Philonoe become a victim of her own fate, or does she have the power to change it?

'A beautifully illustrated and timely story about the importance of having compassion for others as well as oneself.' - Rachel Smythe, bestselling author of Lore Olympus

'The Lost Daughter of Sparta is a miracle: a great modern love story with the power of an ancient myth. Thrilling, funny, and gorgeous, it could sit next to books by Madeline Miller or Alison Bechdel-but it's also brilliantly, perfectly itself.' - Lev Grossman, bestselling author of The Magicians

'The Lost Daughter of Sparta is a stirring, beautifully illustrated hero's journey overflowing with heart and a wicked sense of humor. Drawing on fragments of ancient mythology, Felicia Day has crafted a timely and inspiring tale of adventure filled with modern themes that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like an outcast or a misfit. My daughter and I both adored it!' - Ernest Cline, bestselling author of READY PLAYER ONE

'The Lost Daughter of Sparta is for anyone who loves the epics of Hercules, Theseus, or Jason and the Argonauts, but it is especially meaningful for all of us who have struggled to fit in, without letting someone else define us.' - Wil Wheaton
