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. With unforgettably vivid characters, mesmerizing language and page-turning suspense, Circe is a triumph of storytelling, an intoxicating epic of family rivalry, palace intrigue, love and loss, as well as a celebration of indomitable female strength in a man's world. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 00 $a Circe $c (Mythological character) $v Fiction. 600 00 $a Odysseus, $c King of Ithaca (Mythological character) $v Fiction. 600 00 $a Helios $c (Greek deity) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Magic $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gods $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Heroes $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Magic $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Weeks, Perdita, $d 1985- $e narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12376244?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/bsa_9781094032276_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20191105015106.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=48627258FF9A11E9A2D37E2597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
