My Greek mythology-obsessed teenager and I listened to this at their suggestion on a road trip. We arrived home with 10 minutes left on the audiobook and HAD to just stand around the kitchen table listening until the end. It has us both riveted the whole time.

I got REALLY into this. It was like my Greek mythology obsession as a kid grew up. Really captivating and moving story about life and loss and leaning into your power.
There were a couple swords in this for sure, but mostly witchcraft serving as Circe’s weapon of choice.
