Description

In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child -- not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power -- the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves. Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many of the most famous figures in all of mythology, including the Minotaur, Daedalus and his doomed son Icarus, the murderous Medea, and, of course, wily Odysseus. But there is danger, too, for a woman who stands alone, and Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of both men and gods, ultimately finding herself pitted against one of the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians. To protect what she loves most, Circe must summon all her strength and choose, once and for all, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from, or the mortals she has come to love.

Too boring

September 6th 2026

Me esperaba más brujería y más dolor, por ser la historia de Circe. Aún así, ha sido muy interesante de leer y me ha recordado lo estúpidos que con los dioses.

No he leído La Odisea, todavía, pero vi Epic: The Musical y quedé encantada con Odiseo. Con este libro le odié. Telémaco desde luego que no se parece a él y muchas gracias.

Esperaba ver más furia o venganza por parte de Circe, he de decir que sabía muy poco o casi nada de ella, pero a veces su pasividad y su necesidad de que la valoraran gente como esa, me ponía de los nervios.

De todos modos me ha gustado su versión y he llegado a empatizar con su historia.

"No puedo soportar este mundo ni un momento más.

Entonces, muchacha, crea otro."

Ambiance: atmospheric · melancholic

My local library did a “blind date with a book” through February, where the books were wrapped with a quote and genre written on the wrapping. This is not a book I would typically choose for myself but I do love Green mythology so was excited to read it. It that’s your thing, it’s a pretty interesting read!
