"Myths may be home of the miraculous, but they are also mirrors of us."
I love this statement, as well as the idea it communicates. I think this is why myths are so timeless as well as why society (including myself) can't get enough of them in all their iterations.
I didn't expect the scholarly commentary format of this book, but I'm really enjoying it.

It's finally complete 🤩 according to the italian edition.
Some books of the series are not available in my language, I guess I will buy and red them in english 😁

pickI'm a big fan of Riley and am working my way through her books. This wasn't my favourite but was still very enjoyable. The setting was unusual and the continual storyline was different from her usual two handed/historical prequel style which I really love. However I felt the interesting dynamics of a modern family struggling with secrets and prejudice was an interwring vehicle for a story and Rileys excellent prose kept me reading.
“Real guys not ask directions.”
These are Prometheus‘ clay-made mortals, the first guys.
pickThese stories are such fun! Pet peeve, though - cover picture doesn‘t follow description in the story.
Second book down for #24B4Monday and just over three hours in (plus some Nancy Drew with the kiddo).

pickAlways good. Hephaistos‘ story is also Prometheus‘ story, and it raises lots of interesting questions on both fronts.
Book eight finished in #SummersEndReadathon and #24B4Monday and just over 19 hours!

Anyone else look up music mentions along the way? #pandora #listeningnow #24in48
One of the books on my personalized reading list from the #omahalibrary.
I like archaeological books, but usually the characters are Mary Sues/ Gary Stus that I DNF It.
Hoping this one will be different #pandora #iraq
Trinity War is a re- telling of the myth of Pandora's Box. It precedes Forever Evil. The Justice League are at the mercy of magical forces they don't understand.
