What’s Better than an Audiobook performed by the Author?

nothing! Natalie Haines is a masterful writer and I could listen to her reading a phone book. So far she is my favorite author of reimagined classics!!!!

The author’s performance elevates an already entrancing tale

Greek mythology is fascinating to begin with once I get a grip on some of those difficult to pronounce names. The narrators command of those quickly erases that barrier. And then there is the wit in her writing and delivery. I have saved this as a favorite to listen to again when I need a lift out of the ordinary. Once I get past the “list of names”, it’s a joy ride into an ancient world I thought I knew. Haynes has re-fashioned it into something even more playful and engaging.

FANTASTIC!!

The narration by the author of this book is everything to me! Conversations between Athena and Hermes as well as the crow and olive tree OMG!!!!

Fun, funny, and touching

Performance of this book was top notch. A retelling of the Medusa myth which both humanizes the Olympians and elevates the mortals. 10/10

Heart wrenchingly beautiful

I don't know if I have the words. I am in awe of this book. Challenging the idea of the "hero", the "monster", and the role of women in history and historical fiction is absolutely perfection. I actually gasped out loud when she is describing how the presence of Medusa changed her sisters as they were raising her. As a mother myself, this hit very close to home. Natalie, please never stop!
