About This Audiobook

Madeline Miller weaves a captivating tale of Circe, the enchantress from Homer's Odyssey, in this distinctive audiobook. Miller's prose is as mesmerizing as Circe's magic, painting vivid scenes of ancient Greece and the titan's lair. Ann Vielhaber's narration is a standout, her voice shifting effortlessly between Circe's youthful curiosity and her later, hard-won wisdom. This isn't your typical fantasy; it's a compelling blend of mythology, feminism, and coming-of-age story.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was hooked from the start, as Vielhaber's Circe navigates her unique powers and the societal expectations that clash with them. Miller's exploration of Circe's growth, from naive daughter to powerful sorceress, is a masterclass in character development. The pacing is excellent, balancing introspective moments with thrilling action. My only critique is that some of Circe's internal monologues could have been trimmed to keep the narrative driving forward. Overall, this is a must-listen for fans of mythology, strong female protagonists, and immersive storytelling.
