We were only three angry high school girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the tree-hugging activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one who never quite fit in. We hardly knew each other, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unjust world.

We were only three angry girls, simmering uselessly in our ocean-side California town, until one day a mysterious, beautiful classmate named Ambrosia taught us what else we could be: Powerful. Deadly.Furious.

Yes, that's us. The three Greek Furies, come to life, ready to take our revenge on everyone who deserves it. And who doesn't deserve it, really? We're done with chances. We are angry. The Furies have come to town.
Jill Wolfson's Furious is an enthralling retelling of Greek myth.

Industry Reviews

This is no lightweight, modern-day retelling of a Greek myth like the "Pandora" series by Carolyn Hennessy or even "Percy Jackson"--the tale explodes with rage. "VOYA" For fans of mythology and retellings. "School Library Journal" *A natural choice for older fans of Rick Riordan's Olympians series. "Booklist, starred review" For readers moving beyond Percy Jackson into the more complex realm of teen angst, this is an enthralling and chilling tale that uses Greek mythology to create a timely fable. "Kirkus Reviews" * A treasure of quiet good humor and skillful storytelling. "Booklist, starred review on What I Call Life" Wolfson's first novel is a grand-slam home run. "VOYA on What I Call Life" A small miracle. "Santa Cruz Sentinel on What I Call Life" A thoughtful and ultimately hopeful book . . . resonant and absorbing. "School Library Journal on What I Call Life" * A powerful, multifaceted exploration of ethics, love and the celebration of life. "Kirkus Reviews, starred review on Cold Hands, Warm Heart" An intense, likable reading experience. "Chicago Tribune on Cold Hands, Warm Heart" The subject is immediately gripping, and the book is genuinely thoughtful. "BCCB on Cold Hands, Warm Heart""
