Bull  by David Elliott retells the myth of the Minotaur from many viewpoints, but the chief narrator and orchestrator of the chaos that ensues in Poseidon, a vengeful (if well rhyming) god.  The novel is in verse and moves quickly from character to character.  The most sympathetic is Asterion, the child engineered by Poseidon and whom Minos tries to turn into a monster.  Sure to engineer lots of interest in the myth and the "secondary" characters such as Theseus and Daedalus.
