Bár Kirké történetét kevésbé ismertem, sokkal jobban kapcsolódni tudtam vele és az isteni mivoltával csupán azért mert ezek olyan gondolatok amikre gyakrabban kerestem a választ. Ha a görög isteneket akartam volna megérteni, akkor ez a mű csodás kommentárt adott a megértésükhöz narratíván keresztül.
A rengeteg történet amelyben Kirké részt vesz és a rengeteg mitológiai utalás mind megérintettek vagy megnevettettek. Érdekesnek találtam, hogyan kapcsolódnak össze mégis a különböző mesék és legendák.
Kirké karakterfejlődése figyelemreméltó volt, és csodáltam, hogy mennyire megérthetőnek és megérintőnek találtam. Talán ez tetszett benne annyira, hogy milyen karakterfókuszú volt a mű.
A mellékszereplők mind érdekesek és élvezetesek voltak. Pasziphaé gyönyörűen kegyetlen, Daidalosz mélyen érintő, Pénelpeia furfangos, Télemakhosz és Télegonosz pedig szívmelengetőek. Odüsszeusz pedig önmaga volt, mely nosztalgiát ébresztett bennem, de nem mondhatom azt, hogy nem változott meg a róla alkotott képem teljesen.
A különböző metaforák és gondolatok amiket megjelenített igazán elgondolkodtatóak voltak és nem hiszem, hogy a közel jövőben ki fogom tudni szedni ezt a könyvet a fejemből.

I'd also like to give it props for how it portrayed SA. I was afraid that it would change Circe's completely, completely rewriting her to be weak and scared, but no! It was handled extremely well! I like that it shows that trauma doesn't need to tie you down. I appreciate it!
All that aside I was extremely disappointed in the ending.
