Where Darkness Bloomed

De: K. D. Stark

Narrado por: Imogen Church

War rages above. Death stirs below. And the Fates are far from silent.

As the Trojan War shatters kingdoms, a goddess and a queen stand on the cusp of legend.

Persephone, goddess of spring, was meant to remain untouched by shadow. Hidden by her mother in an attempt to outwit the Fates, she has been raised far from Olympus and the world of men. But when a chance encounter with Hades, the formidable ruler of the Underworld, binds their paths, she is thrust into a realm of power, peril, and desire. In his kingdom of shadowed beauty, she must decide if she is captive... or queen.

Above, Helen of Troy faces her own reckoning, shackled to the besieged city of Troy. Stolen by Paris, she walks a dangerous line between survival and defiance. From within Troy's bloodstained walls, she becomes ensnared in a treacherous dance with Achilles—the infamous warlord whose wrath threatens to destroy all.

As the Underworld swells with the dead, Persephone and Helen must choose: to follow the threads spun for them by the Fates. Or else sever them, and weave something new.

Two women. One war. And a destiny poised between ruin and rebirth.

Fans of Madeline Miller, Jennifer Saint, and Natalie Haynes will be spellbound by this lush, lyrical tale of gods, mortals, and fate.

This novel contains mature themes and emotionally intense scenes—including war, violence, and sensuality—told in a style reflective of ancient myth. Listener discretion advised.
