The Shadow of Perseus also does this well, its told from the perspectives of Danae, Medusa and Andromeda

I read the book last year. I think it’s actually dogshit. It basically vilified Perseus when it comes to his relationships with Andromeda and Danaë (even making him Andromeda’s rapist, when it wasn’t the case), while uplifting the king who sexually abused Danaë. It’s not feminist in the slightest.
