This was almost perfect. It‘s a fast paced tale of the life of Hercules told not by himself but by those around him - a mix of those he loved and those who hated him. It‘s refreshingly honest and embraces the queer nature of Ancient Greece but keeping track of all of the people and voices is a lot. The tone is quite Jodi Taylor esque (esp when you get to the character list) and feels a bit much across so many narrators.

Quite enjoying this so far. Lots of different perspective on Hercules from people who crossed his path. If I can finish this before September 1st which is an off chance given my upcoming work week I will make my first ever line in bingo!

So good! Witty, queer, unique, and funny, I‘ve never read anything quite like it. Telling the story of Hercules from various perspectives of everyone but Hercules himself, it is equal parts enjoyable and thought provoking. If you like mythology, check this out! #20in4 @Andrew65

BookmarkTavern Oooo! Sounds interesting! 5mo

Ok so I didn‘t get through a witching year in time despite enjoying it. I can‘t renew it because my city got hacked ?? The government is basically shut down and now I can‘t access the library? Well now after a week I can access Libby, but not partner libraries which is where most of my ebooks are held. So this one was available instead. 🤷🏻‍♀️

ChaoticMissAdventures The whole city?? 8mo
Augustdana @ChaoticMissAdventures I should have said a cyber attack on the municipal government. We can‘t contact the city, their phones and emails don‘t work. I‘m OK, but maybe not my personal information? They aren‘t being very clear about it. 8mo

YAY I am finally getting through my NetGalley arcs!!! Hercules is not a likeable character, but his story is told through multiple points of view which I think was my favorite part. We see so many different people and get their perspective on Hercules and there is a lot to enjoy.
I‘m reading the Percy Jackson series at the moment with my kid and it was so fun to see characters from there pop up here for a completely different audience.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Found this on #netgalley this morning and it is one of the most beautiful covers I have seen this year (maybe ever?)
I feel like it‘s don‘t judge a book by is cover applies to everything EXCEPT actual books. I get wolf on books bc of their covers all the time with few regrets lol
