This is a departure form my preferred genre, which is historical fiction.But it is in line with my other love, storytelling and ancient folklore. This brings to life the story of Circe, who was the daughter of Helios, the sun god, and a nymph. She was a powerful witch, most famous for turning Homer's men into swine on the island where she was exiled to. It interweaves a lot of mythical figures who we likely familiar with, like Homer, and Hermes, the messenger. It was hard to follow at first, but once you get into it, it is fascinating. It gets more and more incredible, in a good way, like a good story.
