Historia
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.

Lovely Prose
Revisado: 05-16-18
I loved Madeline Miller's book Song of Achilles. A beautifully crafted story, evoking a full range of emotions from the reader. When I purchased Circe and began listening I thought it was the same old Circe story at first -- but once I started listening I had high hopes that Miller's skill with words would be as lilting as the Song of Achilles. It was delightful and wonderful both in plot, character development and use of language. I highly recommend it.

Diana Gabaldon’s magnificent historical saga, begun with Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber, continues with this New York Times bestseller. Set in the intriguing Scotland of 200 years ago, the third installment in the romantic adventures of Jamie and Claire is as compelling as the first.

Why we think it’s a great listen: An all-time Audible favorite that mixes historic fiction, adventure, and romance with one of the most fascinating literary devices: time travel. Outlander introduces an exhilarating world of heroism and breathtaking thrills as one woman is torn between past and present, passion and love. In 1945, former combat nurse Claire Randall returns from World War II and joins her husband for a second honeymoon. But their blissful reunion is shattered....

This book definitely met my expectations. Not only were the characters and storyline riveting, but the narration was excellent as well. As a piece of historical fiction I found it interesting. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves history, but also loves a good yarn.

This delightful story of a little girl who is trying to honor her father's wishes has some predictable elements, but also some surprises along the way. If you always cheer for the underdog, this story is for you.

Historia
In the rigid theocracy of Salem, Massachusetts, rumors that women are practicing witchcraft galvanize the town. In a searing portrait of a community engulfed by panic—with ruthless prosecutors, and neighbors eager to testify against neighbor—The Crucible famously mirrors the anti-Communist hysteria that held the United States in its grip in the 1950’s.

Kingsolver Magic
Revisado: 07-12-14
I read this book when it was first published; listened to it on audio some years later and then purchased it again on audible. Kingsolver's stories are a blend of subtle humor and a life perspective that is thoughtful and appealing. I will read this again and again.
