Olympus Bound

De: Jordanna Max Brodsky

Narrado por: Jordanna Max Brodsky

To save her father Zeus, king of the Gods, Selene must leave her adopted Manhattan home and travel to Mount Olympus to defeat the cult that seeks to destroy the Greek pantheon in the concluding volume of this modern day "lively re-imaging of classical mythology." (Deborah Harkness)

Summer in New York: a golden hour on the city streets, but a dark time for Selene. She's lost her home and the man she loves.

A cult hungry for ancient power has kidnapped her father and targeted her friends. To save them, Selene must face the past she's been running from -- a past that stretches back millennia, to when the faithful called her Huntress. Moon Goddess. Artemis.

With the pantheon at her side, Selene must journey back to the seat of her immortal power: from the streets of Rome and the temples of Athens -- to the heights of Mount Olympus itself.

good storyline

I like the story. The narration is a little much for me. But, good stories

No spoilers

I'm so bummed this was the last book. Brodsky wrote a series that devoured me hole I could not stop listening. Beware it will suck you in. The world was in the here and now with Greek God's long forgotten and losing there powers add in a fantastic mystery that will keep you guessing. Mythology, romance, characters I absolutely loved with some laughs (Theo) lots of suspense. I can't give this series more stars or I would have. The narration done by Brodsky/Petkoff was some of the best I've listen to. I'm very picky about narration and they both rate VERY high on the list to listen too well worth the credit/money. I do wish Brodsky would write another book for this series. Give Deborah Harkness (Discovery of Witches) a try another fantastic listen.

so....

I was really upset the way book 2 ended that I returned books 1 and 2...this installment made up for it for me though...

wonderful

loved it and the other 2 before. definitely worth a listen and even multiple more listens.

Amazing Series!!

I absolutely feel in love with this series hard!!! I could not wait to keep going further into the story! You can tell there was a lot of effort put into the research. Very well written!

Immortals ,Greek Mythology told a different way

Loved all 3books!!

loved the Greek Mythology, religions of the world & cults .....facts of true things intertwined with fantasy all combined made for a great story to read or listen too.

Amazing story and amazing narrations.

This is my second audio book that I’ve listened to, and it might have just set the standard for how I feel like the narration should be. Amazing story. Had me looking up things on google from start to finish.

I'm going to listen to the trilogy again!

I loved this trilogy! It was engaging and fun.
I read the wolf in the whale by Jordanna which set me on a reading trek of my own.
I hope you enjoy this book and the previous two as much I did.

fabulous read

loved it so much will be back to read again and again outstanding looking forward to the next book

Creative and vivid

I found myself imagining it as a movie. Well done. Enjoyed the mix of modern and ancient sites.
