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.
##Why everything has to start with a romance?? That should be the least feminist of all.
评分##掉入了查询人物关系的兔子洞
评分##作者写bl的功力还是比写bg的高哇…
评分##Circe/Kirke原本在神话里就是一个另类的存在,Olympian众神本来就孩子气得要命(不然Athena为什么会为了Paris选Aphrodite而毁了特洛伊),而且离荷马史诗过了两千多年,很难有新梗,老剧情也快被抄烂了。所以这本可以说是个不可多得的新说了。不懂为什么豆瓣评分这么低,大概是希腊神话普及率不是很高?
评分##好好看!几年前在上coursera的《奥德赛》的时候,就特别喜欢Calypso和Circe。“她注定会爱上每一个经过的男人,但他们都不得不离开。” 这本书又把希腊神话知识给我巩固了一遍,很棒很棒。
评分##我再也不相信我那群美国同学推荐的书了。。
评分##英文有声书。读了一阵无感就放弃了。开头那里写Circe见到她叔叔普罗米修斯,还在想写这俩人的话还挺带感。。。

评分##我竟然听完了,真的就只有最后1/4比较有趣,之前的所有角色都predictable到了一定程度。全世界都对不起女主,所以她被流放前做的那些和她同族一样冷酷自私的事并不妨碍她稳站道德高地。Daedalus做错了什么被写成和她同病相怜的怪物制造者......结尾也够双标,只写她和Telemachus结合(先吃完不会变老的种族福利),而不提Penelope和Telegonus这对。小说结尾Prometheus应该已经获释了吧,对女主那么重要的角色好歹提一下啊(不了不了,免得女主又要谈恋爱????)。这个玛丽苏故事就是上半年各家书店推荐的女性小说,挺失望的。
